This German puff pancake recipe yields a puffy, oven-baked buttery pancake—it's so easy! You may never make standard pancakes again. Pour your favorite syrup over it or dust it with confectioners' sugar. Adding more butter is unnecessary because it's already baked onto the top and forms a delicious, salty, buttery crust.
