How to make the german pancake
Making an oven-baked pancake is very easy. Simply throw eggs, milk, flour, salt, and vanilla in your blender until smooth. In the meantime warm the baking pan in the hot oven and melt butter in the baking pan. Pour the pancake batter into the warm baking pan over melted butter and bake in the oven for about 25 minutes. The pancake will puff in a spectacular way and should be golden on the edges.
