German Oven Pancake

Fluffy Oven Pancake! Simple ingredients, easy to make.  A worthy brunch substitute for Waffles or French Toast. 

I fell in love with breakfast food in my 20’s … I could eat this morning, noon, night, and be fully contented.  I’ve had adventures with French Toast and Waffle variations.  But this here, oven-baked pancake, is a new guilty pleasure! 

During the 2020 quarantine season, I had participated in various virtual activities, including learning to bake from scratch.  This was the only brunch-like recipe we had tried out, and it did not disappoint.

It’s not a light fare by any means, but absolutely worth it with honey, maple, or fruit toppings, egg-white veggie omelet on the side, and an organic hot tea.  That’s my usual spread.  🙂
