Preparation

  1. 1.
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground nutmeg.
  2. 2.
    In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk and melted butter, and whisk until well combined.
  3. 3.
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. 4.
    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grease lightly with butter or cooking spray.
  5. 5.
    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on both sides.
  6. 6.
    Repeat with the remaining batter.
  7. 7.
    Serve the Verwurelter Pancakes warm with a dollop of sour cream and applesauce.

Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Flour — Sift the flour before measuring to ensure a lighter batter.
  • Eggs — Use room temperature eggs for better incorporation into the batter.
  • Milk — Use whole milk for a richer flavor and texture.
  • Nutmeg — Freshly grated nutmeg will provide the best flavor.
  • Butter — Melt the butter and let it cool slightly before adding it to the batter.

Tips & Tricks

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of dried herbs like thyme or parsley to the batter.
  • Experiment with different toppings such as grated cheese, bacon, or sautéed mushrooms.
  • Make sure the skillet or griddle is evenly heated to prevent uneven cooking of the pancakes.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately to enjoy them at their best texture and flavor.
  • Leftover pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated in a toaster or microwave.

Serving advice
