Puff Oven Pancake

"This is a very easy breakfast dish. It goes well witha fresh fruit, crisp bacon or sausages. If you serve this on it's own it serves one person but if you have sausages, potatoes, peppers, mushrooms etc it serves two. There are as many variations as you have imagination. Just follow the batter recipe and then add what ever you fancy before serving. In the picture I have dressed it with "No sugar added" Raspberry Jam & Pine nuts. I make my batter early - keep it in the fridge, heat my pan, melt the butter, pour in the icecold batter and pop it in the 450F oven. Works every time. It is fun to bring the puffed pancake to the table in the skillet and serve from the skillett"

  1. I've been looking for a recipe called the German pancake that they serve at Elmer's resturant. This is the same thing! Thanks
     
  2. This is a favorite recipe of mine, it is terrific!!
     
  3. If you omit the nuts and spread with butter, powered sugar and fresh lemon juice. My grandchildren love it this way. You can add fresh fruit if you want.
     
  4. This recipe was too similar to my own for me to post it, so I'm reviewing Bergy's version. Quick, easy, delicious! By time you set the table for brekkie, this pancake is done! I love the eggy-taste and the fact that NO sugar is used in the batter; this allows me to add my own sweet topping. I've never made it with ice cold batter; I only have used room temperature batter whipped into a frenzy with my manual beater to achieve maximum height. A 10" skillet makes a large enough pancake for the two of us, with some lovely crsip bacon on the side.
     
  5. Just tried this this morning. Quite good, and even better its easy to prepare on a whim-no special grocery trips! I used the powdered sugar and raspberry preserves (as I had no marmalade) and was pretty good like that. I'll try it next time with the marmalade (which I love) and some butter. Thanks

On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine. I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help. My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods. I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England! In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
