Pannekoeken are showoffs, what you make when you want to impress your guests. German pancakes are humble, not beautiful but solid, good and unfailingly dependable. That's a German pancake at the top. You need a specialty pan for pannekoeken or at least a well-shaped, nonstick skillet. You could make a German pancake in a tin can. Both are easy to make and surprisingly similar even though they don't look alike at all. We usually serve them with syrup--fun, flavored syrups. But if we have fresh fruit, we're going to add that--maybe with a dollop of whipped cream.
Getting Started What's really intriguing is that you can make either with the same mix--different instructions but the same mix.
You can make a German Pancake in almost any oven-proof pan. We'll make you a heck-of-deal on a pannekoeken pan.
We have a page with everything you need to make both pannekoeken and German pancakes--mixes, pans, and more. The mix is half price so it's easy to get started.
Sincerely,
Dennis Weaver The Prepared Pantry
