Introduction

This recipe is modified from a recipe my mom's family brought from the German part of Switzerland. The pancakes are similar to crepes. This recipe is modified from a recipe my mom's family brought from the German part of Switzerland. The pancakes are similar to crepes.

Ingredients

    1 cup Eggbeaters Egg Substitute*
    1-1/2 cups nonfat milk
    3/4 cup flour
    1/4 cup salt

Directions

Beat all ingredients together. Spray a 9" nonstick skillet with nonstick spray (like Pam) and over medium heat. Place a ladle full of batter (my ladle holds about 1/3 cup) in the skillet and twist it around so it covers the whole bottom of the skillet. Cook until top starts to dry and flip to cook other side. (Both sides should be slightly browned).

My Swiss ancestors ate these pancakes with cooked dried apples. We like them with maple syrup or Swedish-style with lingonberries. Be sure to count the nutritional information from any toppings you use.

This recipe makes about 6 pancakes. I am counting that as 3 servings of 2 pancakes each in the nutritional information here. If you eat 1.5 servings, here are the exchange equivalents for half the recipe: 2 meat, 3/4 milk, and 2 bread.

*Note: You may substitute 4 eggs for the Eggbeaters, but the fat count will be higher.
