There are also so many ways to make pancakes, and each country do it differently. The French are more customed to the crepe, a thinner pancake which is stuffed with your choice of filling. The popular options being lemon, sugar, and Nutella. The Germans make their pancakes differently as their pancakes are thicker, making for fluffy pancake bites. 

Here is a recipe how to make German pancakes. (Recipe from tastesbetterfromscratch.com

  1. Add 5 tablespoons of butter to a 9×13-inch baking and place it in your preheating oven to melt. 

  2. Meanwhile, add the eggs, milk, flour, salt and vanilla to a blender, cover, and blend until smooth. Pour batter into the baking dish, over the melted butter. 

  3. Bake until the edges are golden brown and puffy, about 22-27 minutes.
