Groten Hans

(Recipe reconstructed and adapted from Hildegard's circa 1157 treatise Physica: Liber Simplicis Medicinæ ) These biscuits were first made over 900 years ago by the Christian saint, Hildegard of Bingen. She said that these spice biscuits should be taken t regular intervals to increase joy and positivity! I like to substitute half of the plain flour with spelt flour, and use all organic ingredients.

German type of pancake, serve with favorite sandwich items or Nutella. Great for Brunch or Dessert!Submitted by: CD13673392

I found an extremely high rated recipe for German Apple cake on Allrecipes.com and adapted it by using applesauce instead of oil, honey instead of sugar and half wheat flour instead of all white.

I liked it, however next time I will either only use 3/4 cup of honey or 1.5 cups of brown sugar instead of the honey. I would also chop the apples smaller than I did in this one.

Other than that a tasty and moist treat that is guilt free none the less.Submitted by: SONG4THEMOON

I'm calling these "European" Pancakes as opposed to the ones i have come to know as American Pancakes, because mine are thin and about 8" in diameter, instead of small, thick and fluffy.
They are known all over Europe, the French call them Crepe, the Dutch Pannenkoeken and the Austrians and Czech Palatschinken.
They can be sweet or hearty - i add apple slices for my favourites.Submitted by: BINEMELLES
