German Pancakes or Dutch Baby recipe - an old family favorite that we love to make for breakfast. www.thirtyhandmadedays.com

German Pancakes are an old family favorite recipe that I grew up on.  Easy to make and the perfect breakfast treat. I can’t wait to share it with you!

German Pancakes

Even though traditional pancakes aren’t my favorite, if I ever have a choice for breakfast, I would choose this German Pancakes recipe every time.  It is sooooo good and so much fun to watch bake.  It makes all kinds of humps and bumps in the oven that change throughout the time in the oven.

Dutch Baby vs. German Pancakes

I know that this recipe has several different names.  Growing up we always called them German Pancakes but I know that some people call them Dutch Babies, Hills and Valleys, Hootenannies, and more.  The most common one that I’ve heard over and over is Dutch Baby.  The funny thing is that they are called that because the daughter of a Seattle based restaurant Manca’s Cafe couldn’t pronounce the word “Deutsch.”  Deutsch is the German word for German.  Somehow it became “Dutch Baby” from that.  But they are truly a German based pancake, Pfannkuchen.
No matter what you call them, they are dang good!

Most people serve German Pancakes with syrup but I actually like them plain.  I feel like the butter and sugar in it adds plenty of yummy goodness, but I realize that I might be alone in that thought.  My Mom used to serve them with powdered sugar and berries or berry syrup.

    Can this be halved.? It seems too big for 2 people.

      It can be halved but you’d need to use a smaller pan. ;)
