Ingredients

Pancakes:

Vanilla sauce:

Preparation procedure

  • Pancake batter Put the flour, ground poppy seeds, vanilla sugar and salt into a bowl. Add the eggs, milk, sparkling water and oil. Whisk until smooth. Cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 60 minutes so the poppy seeds soften and the batter comes together.
  • Frying Lightly grease a non-stick pan with oil. Heat it over medium heat and fry thin pancakes on both sides until golden. Stack on a plate and keep warm.
  • Vanilla sauce Whisk the yolks with the sugar, vanilla sugar, flour and 3–4 tablespoons of milk until smooth. Bring the remaining milk to a boil, then, in a thin stream and while stirring constantly, pour in the yolk mixture. Cook over low heat until thickened. Remove from heat, stir in the butter and let cool until lukewarm.
  • Finishing and serving Fill the pancakes with some of the vanilla sauce, roll up or fold. Serve drizzled with the remaining sauce, optionally lightly dusted with powdered sugar.

Number of pieces approx. 12 pancakes (≈ 4 servings)

Active time 40 minutes

Tips and variations

  • Sparkling mineral water makes the batter airier; don’t omit it.

  • Stir the sauce the whole time so it doesn’t burn and lumps don’t form.

  • You can add a pinch of lemon zest to the batter; tart jams (currant, sour cherry) also go well for serving.
