Description

Delicious mini Dutch pancakes that are light, fluffy, and perfect for popping in your mouth.


Ingredients

  • 250 g all-purpose flour (about 2 cups)
  • 1.5 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 300 ml milk (about 1⅓ cups), room temperature
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • Melted butter, for greasing the pan
  • Powdered sugar, for serving


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
  2. Add the milk and eggs to the dry ingredients and whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Transfer the batter to a piping bag or squeeze bottle.
  4. Heat the poffertjes pan over medium heat and grease each indentation with melted butter.
  5. Pipe batter to fill each hole about two-thirds full.
  6. When bubbles appear on top and the edges look set, flip each poffertje using a fork or wooden skewer.
  7. Cook until both sides are golden brown, then keep warm covered with a plate or foil while finishing remaining batches.
  8. Serve immediately with a generous dusting of powdered sugar and a small cube of butter on top.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, substitute with oat or almond milk and vegan butter. For gluten-free, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend and allow the batter to rest briefly.
