DUTCH PANCAKES
My family moved here from Holland just before I was born. These pancakes, a little thicker and eggier than a crepe, are eaten in our family for breakfast or for dinner. Serve rolled and topped with real maple syrup, fried apples, jam, or sugar. Leftovers are good eaten cold.

Steps:
- Beat eggs with a wire whisk in a large bowl. Add 1 3/4 cups flour and whisk until mixture is smooth. Whisk in 1 1/4 cups milk, sugar, and oil. Batter should be the consistency of buttermilk; add additional flour or milk if needed. Let batter stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Heat a small, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon butter and melt. Add 1/4 cup pancake batter and tilt pan to coat the bottom. Cook until pancake is nearly dry on top, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until browned, about 2 minutes. Pancake may curl slightly and that is normal, but if it curls too much add more milk to remaining batter. Stack pancake on a plate and repeat to make remaining pancakes, adding remaining butter as needed.

Steps:
- Make the pancake batter by combining flour and freshly ground salt and pepper. Make a well in the center and add 1 whole egg, 1 egg yolk and the milk gradually and beating all the time. Set aside in a cool place for 2 hours. Melt 1-ounce butter in the frying pan. Add it to the batter mixture. Pour the batter into the pan and rotate until the base is evenly covered. When the topside looks waxy the underside is cooked. Flip over using a palette knife. Cook lightly and then turn pancake from the pan "second side up" onto a heated serving dish. (This side gets a complete cooking later when covered by bacon and broiled.) Lay slices of bacon on top and 1 tablespoon of syrup. Put dish under broiler and cook bacon for 2 1/2 minutes. Meanwhile prepare a second pancake. When the bacon is cooked cover it with the second pancake. Arrange thin slices of apple around the top of the pancakes. Dust with sugar and small pieces of softened butter. Return to the broiler until apples are soft and glazed - approximately 2 1/2 minutes. Now make the sauce. Heat the 1/4 cup of maple syrup and the cream in a pan. Mix the arrowroot and the remaining 2 egg yolks together and add them to the pan. As it comes gently to the boil add a pinch of cinnamon. Stir constantly to avoid curdling. Remove from heat when thick and pour over the pancakes. Serve piping hot - immediately.

Steps:
- Mix dry ingredients together. Add oil and eggs to this mixture. Slowly add the milk to a very thin consistency. Whisk well til very few lumps remain.
- Fry about 1/2 cup of this mixture at a time in a quite hot frying pan sprayed with pam, you only need to grease the pan intermittantly after that. Spread thinly in the hot pan by tipping the pan in circular motion. The thinner the pancake the better:) Fry them til the top of the pancake appears dry then flip over until it is quite brown on the bottom.
- These take some practice but are worth the effort!
Tips:
- Use a non- stick frying pan. This will help prevent the pancakes from sticking and make them easier to flip.
- Make sure the pan is hot enough before adding the batter. If the pan is not hot enough, the pancakes will not cook evenly and may stick to the pan.
- Pour the batter into the pan in a thin, even layer. This will help the pancakes cook evenly.
- Do not overcrowd the pan. If you add too much batter to the pan, the pancakes will not cook evenly and may stick together.
- Flip the pancakes when they are golden brown on the bottom and the edges are starting to brown. Do not flip the pancakes too early or they will not be cooked through.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Dutch pancakes are best served warm.
Conclusion:
Dutch pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. They are similar to American pancakes, but they are made with a batter that is thinner and more crepe-like. Dutch pancakes can be served with a variety of toppings, such as butter and sugar, fruit, or whipped cream. They are also a great option for savory dishes, such as eggs and cheese or ham and cheese.
