  • Dispensing bottle

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 350 ml milk
  • 250 g flour

  • 100 g butter
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp syrup
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Poffertjes with stewed pears

    1. Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add the eggs and milk and mix together. Melt 50 g butter and add this along with the syrup to the batter, then mix again.
    2. Heat the poffertjes pan over medium-high heat. Put some of the batter into a dispensing bottle. Brush the poffertjes pan well with butter. Squeeze the batter into the cavities, filling them just below the rim.
    3. Cook them for 1–2 minutes until bubbles appear on the top. Then turn them with a poffertjes fork. Cook the other side until golden brown as well.
    4. Remove them from the pan with the fork and grease the pan again. Cook the next batch and repeat until the batter is used up.
    5. A basic recipe is used for the stewed pears, or buy them ready-made. Cut them into pieces and serve the poffertjes with the stewed pears, a pat of butter and powdered sugar.

These poffertjes with stewed pears are a delicious autumnal twist on the classic recipe. The soft, warm stewed pears pair perfectly with the airy poffertjes and make this dish extra special. Serve them straight from the pan for the best result.

Use a dispensing bottle to neatly and easily pipe the batter into the hollows of the poffertjes pan. Don’t forget to brush the pan with butter each time for poffertjes with a lovely golden-brown color. Sprinkle generously with powdered sugar for a festive finish.
