WOW...delish! Quick & easy to use blender for mixing. I followed directions exactly, but instead of 5 tablespoons of butter I sprayed a 9" glass pie plate with olive oil spray and then put 2 tablespoons of smart balance light and melted. Poured batter on top after butter melts and WA-LA. We topped with cherry pie filling and powdered sugar. Can't wait to make for my husband...YUM!!!

We made the BIG GERMAN in place of our usual Sunday morning pancakes (much to my family's alarm), and...it was a huge hit! My husband prefers this dish over both pancakes and waffles and the kids said they were equally good. I followed the recipe as written and used the lemon juice, but next time will probably try some kind of fruit or other filling. Thanks for the great recipe!

My husband had a similar pancake at a restaurant and raved about it, so when I found this recipe I had to try it for him. He LOVED it and said it was even better than the restaurant's!

this was the first oven pancake I've tried and I really enjoyed it, the only thing I didn't like is there was way too much butter, and it still kind of stuck, but other than that it was crispy and light.

All I have to say is OMG!!!!! My boys loved this. They would give it 1 million stars if possible. I used maple sausage, eggs and cheese. It was amazing. I also made a second one with apple pie filling cinnamon and powdered sugar. Hubby and I loved watching it fall. This will definitely be put into the rotation. Thanks for sharing!!

My whole family loves this for a Sunday morning treat. The kids like to watch it puff up in the oven. Thank you for a fun, easy, and yummy recipe.

This is actually a dutch pancake. A german pancake is flat and thinner than the amerikan version. But this is actually a dutch version. Must have been this little confusion with dutch normally meaning deutsch...but this time is actually means dutch. Good recipe and the picture really shows how it should look like. Super.

This was quick and easy to throw together. It's surprising to see what it looks like when it comes out of the oven! I sprinkled powdered sugar and squeezed lemon on it. Nice and light.

I make these every once in a while. The first we tried it we didn't care for the lemon juice and sugar. The next time i made these we used homemade chokecherry jelly. WOW.oh WOW!!! The kids couldn't get enough. I use my cast iron skillet and it works great! Just writing this review makes me want to go make some for supper!

This was pretty good - I think I could've left it in the oven for a few more minutes so next time I will... Tastes almost like French toast in a fun presentation. I tried it with the lemon juice and powdered sugar but ended up drizzling on some maple syrup too! Fun, easy breakfast treat!

Aunt Svea was a wonderful Swedish cook. I followed her around the kitchen trying to write down her recipe for "Oven Pancakes." I thought her recipe was gone when she passed away, because she never measured. It was always "a pinch of this and a dash of that." BUT THIS IS AUNT SVEA'S RECIPE! To Jeanie Bean, submitting this recipe -- Thank You!!

This is such a delicious, easy, and impressive dish to serve for breakfast! We have it at least once a week, and sometimes more! For a while, I was following the recipe exactly, but found that 1/2 the butter and a mix of 1/2 C AP flour and 1/2 C Whole Wheat flour tasted great, and made it a little more healthy. I am very liberal with the lemon juice, and garnish this with sliced oranges. My toddler simply calls this "pancake." He has no idea what actual pancakes are because we have them so rarely!
