Am I going to be impressed or are they mainly a vehicle for toppings?

I've never made one, but they look so yummy. I can't imagine you could go wrong.

I love them. Looooove them. But this is homey comfort breakfast made with mama's love , in this house. Not sure if that translates.  But people always rave when I make them.

We call them german pancakes at our house and I make them about once a week. I usually just top them with maple syrup, but I also like powdered sugar with a squeeze of lemon juice or applesauce as toppings. I rarely do fruit toppings. They're so good and so easy that they are in the rotation pretty heavily.

Ooh, now I recognize them!

Nadra, I call crepes German pancakes. They were a grandma - made favorite. I was about 30 when I realized we were fancy.

Meh.  I like them and make them occasionally, but waffles reign supreme in this house.

Uh-huh!

Did i read it here? Pancakes are one of the oldest dishes in human history. Cavemen made pancakes. Archaeologists found stone bottles of Mrs. Butterworth at Chauvet cave! ;)

Hmm, I may have to try, not sure if I should try the asparagus bacon or plain.

definitely try plain first with powdered sugar & lemon. Then try other stuff but I think you have to know what the traditional dish is first.

mr. 'poo makes them plain and serves them with cooked apple or currant jam (his inner german swede german) demands it.  but they are nice with lemon.

I would make this, but I am lazy.  Therefore I will send SO a recipe for this and say MMMM, this would make a great weekend breakfast!  Then he will make it for me.

just fyi, it's the same batter one would use for ebelskiver (which i make once in a blue moon).  those are fun.  but you'll need a special pan.

Yummy with lemon and powered sugar.  My dad used to make a topping for them that had almonds and berries in the food processor - I am sure there were other ingredients too. 

And waffles reign supreme in this house too.  DH makes them a few times a week.

It came out pretty impressive looking, I made banana fosters sauce to go with, we ate it but I am still hungry.

I am thinking these might come out pretty well, even if using gluten free flour? (They look pretty eggy and don't call for that much flour, right?)

I've made them with GF flour and the texture is not exactly the same but they still work pretty well.  If I'm remembering correctly they don't puff up as much as with white flour, but still pretty tasty. My recipe is super easy to cut in half and cook in an 8x8 glass dish, so if you try it out and it doesn't work it's not like you're out a lot of ingredients. (For the full recipe using 6 eggs, I cook it in a 9x13 dish)

Heat oven to 425. While oven is heating, put 8x8 glass dish in oven to preheat. Melt 3-4 Tb butter in hot baking dish.

Meanwhile, blend together the following:
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup flour (or GF baking mix)
3 eggs
1/4 tsp salt

Pour batter into hot baking dish. Bake 18-20 minutes until puffy.

I usually make a gingery-peppery apple sauce to serve with them.  But they are also surprisingly (not-surprisingly) good with red-eye gravy...

On the weekend agenda! Quick questions ... is 3-4 Ts butter for the full or half recipe? Do you use salted butter? (Otherwise I might up that salt from 1/4 tsp.)

I meant to type 2-3 Tb for the half recipe. The full recipe calls for 6 Tb which is delicious, but I usually only use 4 Tb because I buy half sticks of butter most of the time. I use salted butter. For the half recipe, I'd start with 3 Tb and decrease next time if you think it's too much butter.

If you come up with a 9x13" Pyrex, this cake has been a hit at potluck brunches:

Not a snark on you SG, but I can't stand when recipe sites show pics of every.  single.  step.  before posting the recipe and I have to scroll down several pages. 

That blueberry cake looks delicious!

Me too, actually!   Get to the point!
