Poffertjes are a typical Dutch recipe but I thought I would give it a try. After all, the Netherlands aren't that far away. I don't know how to translate 'poffertjes' that's just how it's called here but in fact these are mini pancakes. They taste a little different than pancakes but I think these are better. You would normally use a special pan to bake these but since I'm not Dutch, I don't have this just lying around and so I experimented with the cakepop machine I got earlier this year. The mini pancakes were a bit smaller than the normal size but the taste was soooo good! You can find the recipe below:
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 60 g butter (at room temperature)
- 125 g granulated sugar
- 185 g self-rising flour
- 2 dl milk
- a pinch of salt
- powdered sugar
Preparation:
- Mix the butter and the sugar until you got a smooth mixture.
- Whisk in the eggs one by one.
- Add the flour, alternating with the milk, to the mixture. Add the salt.
- Heat up your pan, or in my case the cakepop machine.
- Put a little bit of batter in each hole, don't fill it too much because the batter will rise a bit.
- When the top of the mini pancake starts to dry, turn it around and let the other side bake.
- When all your mini pancakes are baked, put them on a plate and sprinkle with the powdered sugar.
