Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between German pancakes and American-style pancakes?

German pancakes (Pfannkuchen or Eierkuchen) are thin and made without baking powder. American-style pancakes are smaller and thicker because baking powder makes the batter rise. Crêpes are even thinner than German pancakes.

How do I make pancakes gluten-free?

Use buckwheat flour, rice flour, ground almonds or gluten-free oats instead of wheat or spelt flour. Let buckwheat batter rest for 10 minutes so it doesn’t tear when you flip it.

Can I make pancakes without flour?

Yes, for example from mashed banana and eggs or from finely ground oats. Make them smaller and cook them over a medium heat so they hold together when you turn them.

Which fat should I use for frying pancakes?

Butter, clarified butter, coconut oil or olive oil. A non-stick pan only needs a thin film, spread with kitchen paper.
