Baked Simple German Pancake (Auflaufen)
"This simple, but delicious pancake is my version of one they make at Elmers Restaurant chain. They serve it with powdered sugar and lemon wedges. I like a little pure maple syrup on mine or possibly some sauted apples."

Should the butter be added to the batter or melted in the bottome of the pan? The recipe does not state. Also, the recipe calls for a 9"x13" pan, but the pictures show what appears to be a small round pancake. Does this small amount of batter bake up in the large sized pan?

Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipe. It resulted in a very tasty treat for my lunch today. It was perfect. Light, fluffy tender and full of flavor. I decided to fill the center with homemade apple sauce. So glad that I did, it was terrific with the pancake. I will be making this again, it was so quick and easy to throw together. made for Name That Ingredient Tag Game.

I'm a Midwesterner, turned Northwesterner for 30 years and finally a Southwesterner. I retired in 1995 and have had time to enjoy, even more, the things I love, like cooking and entertaining special people in our home--family and good friends. Fortunately, my husband enjoys cooking too (one pot meals), so he relieves me a few times a month.
