German Pancakes are one of our favorite weekend breakfasts. A cross between a souffle and an omelet, this version is loaded with tart cranberries and almonds and then drizzled with a sweet orange sauce.
While German Pancakes look and taste like a fancy breakfast, they require less effort than traditional pancakes. Simply whisk the ingredients together, pour into a hot buttered pan, bake and serve.
While they are baking, you’ll have time to make coffee, tidy the kitchen and set the table.
