How to Make Pannekoeken
Much like crepes, Pannekoeken (Dutch pancakes) can go either sweet or savory. Slightly thicker than crêpes these popular street snacks can handle hearty fillings like gouda, ham, apples – or all three!
Serves 4-6
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cup whole milk
Butter
Directions
Combine the flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Whisk in the eggs and milk until smooth. The batter should be slightly runny – if it’s too thick, add a little more milk.
Heat a nonstick omelet pan and coat with butter. Scoop a ladle of batter (about 1/4 cup) into the skillet and move the pan so the batter coasts the bottom in a thin, even layer. When air bubbles begin to form carefully slide a rubber spatula under the pancake and flip. Cook for about 20 seconds on the other side. Remove to a plate, and repeat with remaining batter.
