Growing up, my family's schedule seemed to revolve around mealtime. I have to attribute my love for home cooked food to my mother. She didn't believe in cereal and made us breakfast every morning. I think that deserves some kind of award. Pancakes were my favorite breakfast growing up and my mom made hers from scratch. To be honest, I didn't know you could buy pancake mix at the store until I went to college. I don't claim to be a fabulous cook. I just wanted a place to keep and share all the recipes I love.
My family all came together in the evenings to eat dinner. It was at this time that relationships were built and strengthened. I believe that family dinner is an important tool for cultivating love and strengthening the family. This is why I cook. This is why I share.

German Pancakes

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 5 Tbsp. butter

Melt butter in a 9 x 13 cake pan in oven while preheating it to 350 degrees. Whip eggs until thick and lemon colored, add remaining ingredients and pour into melted butter. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until lightly browned. Serve with maple syrup or lemon juice and powdered sugar...(That's Adam's recommendation).
