POFFERTJES (DUTCH DOLLAR PANCAKES)



Poffertjes (Dutch Dollar Pancakes) image

Poffertjes are a typically Dutch treat resembling very small, fluffy pancakes. They are a must-eat on national holidays, during summer festivals and other festivities in Holland. In the Christmas and New Year's Eve period, you can find poffertjes stalls on every Christmas market. Traditionally they are served with powdered sugar and hot melted butter.

Time 30m

Yield 42 poffertjes, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup water
2 eggs, whisked
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
oil, for brushing the pan
1/2 cup powdered sugar (optional as a topping)
1/4 cup butter (optional as a topping)

Steps:

  • Combine flour and baking powder. Mix in sugar and salt.
  • Pour in milk, water. Combine with a balloon whisk. Add the eggs. Don't over stir anyway, and avoid from producing gluten inside the batter, just combine all ingredients.
  • Heat up the dollar pancake pan. Pour about one tablespoon of batter into each hole. When bubbles appear, bottoms turn lightly brown, use a skew or needle to flip over and cook the other side. They should be cooked until both sides are golden brown. Transfer onto a serving plate, served with powdered sugar and butter.

POFFERTJES (TINY PANCAKES)



Poffertjes (Tiny Pancakes) image

Poffertjes are traditional Dutch cakes, a bit similar in texture to American pancakes. Poffertjes are cooked in a special cast-iron pan with several small shallow indentations in the bottom. They are usually served as an afternoon snack, not as a breakfast food, and often served with icing sugar. I'm posting this in honour of the Aussie/Kiwi World Tour as we are visiting Europe and didn't see this on Zaar. I haven't tried this yet but am going to go and buy the special pan in the Cleveland Market tomorrow and will try them out. Found the recipe on "Back to your roots".

200 g flour
40 g butter or 40 g margarine
350 ml milk
8 g yeast
2 g salt

Steps:

  • Heat the milk until lukewarm.
  • Mix the salt with the flour and make a well in the middle.

  • Stir to a thick, smooth batter. Add the rest of the lukewarm milk (keep stirring!).
  • Cover the batter with a dampened cloth and leave in a warm place (for instance on a radiator) for 1 hour.

  • Fill each of the 'wells' of the pan with some of the batter and fry on both sides until golden brown.

  • I enjoy them with butter, icing sugar and then a little maple syrup, that's how they serve them here in OZ. yummmm.
