Fluffy German Pancakes: Historic Treat in 30 Minutes

German Pancakes, also known as Dutch Babies, have an uncertain origin, but they are believed to have been created in the early 20th century. The name "Dutch Baby" is thought to have been coined by a Seattle restaurant, Manca's Cafe, in the 1940s. The dish is a variation of the French crêpe, with a similar batter but cooked differently, resulting in a puffy, oven-baked pancake.
