Pannekoeken

As you could have guessed, the Dutch adore their pancakes, and for good reasons! In contrast to the small poffertjes, Pannekoeken are substantial dinner-plate-sized delicacies. They are traditionally served with a syrup named treacle. But on other occasions, it is also possible to enjoy them along with many other food variants as well.

Steps to make Pannekoeken:

• Step 1. Preheat the oven to 400 fahrenheit.
• Step 2. In a saucepan, combine the cinnamon, nutmeg, and apples. Sauté the apples over low-level flame for 3 to 5 minutes, or until they become somewhat more tender.
• Step 3. While waiting, you can start preparing the batter. In a mixing dish, combine the milk, vanilla, and eggs.
• Step 4. Raise the temperature to medium-high, and add the icing sugar to the apples. Cook until there is a syrup developing, which might take approximately 3 minutes. Then pour the batter into the middle of the pan in a single layer.
• Step 5. Using a heat-proof spatula to swirl the fruit syrup mixture through the batter. Continue to simmer until little puffs form around the edges.
• Step 6. Bake the Pannekoeken for another 12 minutes. Invert a dish above the pan, and turn it over to extract the Pannekoeken. Garnish the dish with powdered sugar and serve with whipped cream.
