👨🍳 Cooking Instructions
Full recipe instructions for preparing Pfannkuchen
🔥 Prep
- Sift the 200 g flour into a mixing bowl to avoid lumps.
- Crack the 3 eggs into a separate bowl and lightly beat them.
- Measure out 400 ml milk and set aside.
- Measure 1 tsp salt.
- Melt 1 tbsp butter (you can melt it in the microwave or a small saucepan) and let it cool slightly.
🔥 Cook
- 1. Heat a non‑stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat until hot, then add a tiny dab of the melted 1 tbsp butter to coat the surface.
- 2. Pour approximately 60 ml of the batter into the pan and immediately swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
- 3. Cook the crepe for about 30‑45 seconds until the edges begin to lift and the surface looks set.
- 4. Flip the crepe using a spatula or your fingers and cook the other side for another 20‑30 seconds until lightly golden.
- 5. Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate, cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm, and repeat steps 1‑4 with the remaining batter, adding a little more butter to the pan as needed.
🔥 Serve
- Serve the Pfannkuchen warm, folded or rolled, with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and a wedge of lemon.
- Offer sweet fillings such as fruit jam, Nutella, fresh berries, or whipped cream.
- For a savory option, fill with ham, cheese, and sautéed spinach, then fold.
- Pair with a hot beverage like coffee, tea, or a glass of apple juice.
