      Thank You!! If I could Kiss you I would!!!! My father used to make this a few times a year for us for dinner. We always spread applesauce on them and then sprinkled with sugar. YUM YUM!!! My son and Allan are already begging for it again.

      My kids fell in love with these tonight! They want me to make these for breakfast now and incorporate this in our weekly rotation. I made exactly as written and sprinkled with sugar. I will be interested in trying new toppings for these: thinking cinnamon/sugar mixture or even mini chocolate chips. Not sure how that will go since this was our first time having these. Thanks for sharing.

      I learned to make these from my grandmother back in the 40's. Still make them the same, you just can't improve on a good recipe like this one. Made for New Zaar Cookbooks, a tag game.

      Pamela, from one Manitoban to another, thanks for this terrific recipe! So simple, so quick and great reviews from my family, the picky ones in particular. My skeptical DH had to have one after another and believe me, he was wary but gave a great review. I have no Mennonite in my family, but I have been a Prairie girl my whole life and very much appreciate the culture around me, so I thank you once again for a great easy and very satisfying recipe! We spread apple sauce in the middle of the hot from the pan round from the pan and then sprinkled with icing sugar - we wrapped up while still warm, topped it with a smidge of more apple sauce on top and another dusting of sugar...Mmmmmm.. Thank you Pamela!

      the first pancake was perfect and later on they kept getting worse. I followed your diections and they almost never came out cooked all the way or burnt. It was a great recipe and fun to try but i guess i didnt have the pancake thumb. Good Job on finding the recipe

      My mother in-law made these for supper too. Larger batch. Served them with cottage cheese and applesauce. Everyone loved them, but we all held back on eatting them all. She'd make pancake noodle soup with left overs. Roll the pancakes up and cut thin ribbons, add to hot chicken broth and season with Maggi. This is whyI put this recipe in my Soup cook book.

      We liked this pancake. It tastes like the German Puff pancake only thinner and quicker to make. We ate ours with cheddar cheese and some with sauteed apples like we do our puff pancake. Delicious! Thanks Pamela in Winnipeg. Bullwinkle.

      Yummy! Thank you! I served mine rolled up with chunky applesauce filling, and topped with strawberry puree and powdered sugar. My 2 year old (who is very picky by the way), ate his with cinnamon, powdered sugar and a little honey. He loved it and asked for more! Thanks for the delightful recipe!

      Oh yes....delicious is right. My DH is Mennonite and he loves these pancakes for dinner. He likes to wrap them around a sausage or weiner and cover them with maple syrup and have them that way. I just love them with maple syrup though! Thanks for a great recipe Pamela!

      Great recipe - so easy and can be used in many ways. I filled mine with scalloped apples and dusted the pancakes with powdered sugar - YUM! Thanks for a wonderful recipe which I will use over and over!

      Wow! Have been trying to duplicate my German grandmother's thin pancakes. She used to put apples in them. This seems to be the same recipe. Will try them soon..Very nostalgic. Thanks.

      This is exactly the same as my recipe. The great thing about these pancakes is that they work sweet (with sugar or jam) or savoury, filled with fried mushrooms, ham, onions and cheese. Another great way of making them is to add sliced apples, cherries, plums or blueberries just after pouring the batter into the pan. For a slightly lighter batter try substituting 1/2 cup of sparkling water for 1/2 cup of milk! Thanks for sharing your recipe on zaar!

      My mother recently visited from Germany and reminded me that we used to eat these when I was younger. My 6 year old son helped me to make a double batch. It was a quick dinner idea with simple ingredients. We served it rolled up with cinnamon sugar and devoured them. We had several left over which we ate reheated the next day. One minute in the microwave was all it took. These are also good with apple sauce. My husband recently had them on a mission trip to Romania and he said they served them with a strawberry puree. Whatever the filling, these are great! Thanks.

      My mum used to make these for a quick lunch (in most German families the only hot meal per day), when we were kids. My brother would eat tons of it with slices of apple added in the frying process and sprinkled with a sugar cinnamon mixture on top. I didn't rate it, because I personally prefer American pancakes or French crepes, so I don't make them. But pancake lovers usually adore them and the recipe is authentic.
