Swabian Pancakes
Description
These Swabian Pancakes offer a delightful twist on traditional breakfast fare, combining soft, tender pancakes with a luscious fruit filling and a rich custard bake. The dish features delicate pancakes rolled around a sweet mixture of heated applesauce and plump raisins. Once assembled, they are nestled in an ovenproof dish and bathed in a savory-sweet custard made from eggs, milk, sugar, and sliced almonds. Baked until golden and set, the result is a comforting dessert or brunch item with a creamy texture and nutty aroma.Directions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, 2 of the eggs, half of the salt, and 1 cup of the milk until smooth to form the pancake batter.
-
Lightly oil a large frying pan over medium heat.
-
Cook 6 to 8 pancakes, 2 or 3 at a time, flipping once golden brown on each side.
-
In a small saucepan, heat the applesauce and stir in the raisins until warm.
-
Spread the warm apple-raisin mixture evenly over each pancake.
-
Roll each pancake up tightly like a jelly roll.
-
Cut each rolled pancake in half crosswise with a sharp knife.
-
Grease an ovenproof baking dish with the oil or butter.
-
Arrange the pancake halves in the dish, standing them up on their cut edges.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining egg, the sugar, the remaining salt, the remaining milk, and the sliced almonds.
-
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the arranged pancakes.
-
Dot the top with small pieces of the butter.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the custard is set and golden.
