Jersey Cakes

This is a quick post for Uncle Adam. New Years morning, mommy made one of her favorite breakfasts for everyone. Her family calls them monsters because of how they rise in the oven, but typically they are called German Pancakes. For some strange reason, Uncle Adam thought they were called Jersey Cakes. Who knows where he got that from, but we all enjoyed making fun of him for it. Here is the recipe as promised:

6 beaten eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
5 tbs melted butter

Mix all BUT the butter together (mixing in a blender is best to get it frothy). After spraying a 9x13 pan, pore melted butter in the pan and coat the entire bottom. Pore mixture into the pan (butter will be pushed to the edges). Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes or until most the moisture is gone from the top. When you first take it out of he oven, you will notice the ballooned edges (thus the "monster" name) but they will shrink as it cools as bit. Enjoy warm with powdered sugar and syrup.
