The original did not have any eggs, but <em>boekweitmeel<\/em> (buckwheat), some milk, water and butter. It is quite easy to make the dough and make them yourself. The main difference with American pancakes are that these are not as fluffy and thick and the dough is much more liquid. The Dutch ones taste better, I think.<\/p>\n<p>Below a quick recipe:<\/p>\n<p>400 grams of <em>bloem <\/em>(flour);<\/p>\n<p>3 <em>eieren<\/em> (eggs);<\/p>\n<p>8 dl (26 oz) <em>melk <\/em>(milk);<\/p>\n<p>a <em>snufje <\/em>(pinch) of salt;<\/p>\n<p><em>roomboter <\/em>(butter) to bake them.<\/p>\n<p>Mix all ingredients, and for a fluffier dough, use a mixer as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Appel en kaneel (apple and cinnamon)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Starting off, we have <em>appel en kaneel <\/em>(apple and cinnamon), combined with some <em>bruine rietsuiker <\/em>(brown cane sugar). Where does this combination come from? First of all, it must be acknowledged, the combination itself is just awesome as such. No denying that. We also added some <em>rietsuiker <\/em>(cane sugar) to finish it off. It does not matter much what kind of apple you use.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ham en kaas (ham and cheese)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ham en kaas is quite a frequent combination for <em>pannenkoeken<\/em>, although <em>spek en kaas <\/em>(bacon and cheese) can be found a lot as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sugary stuff <em>poedersuiker en stroop <\/em>(powdered sugar and syrup)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course, you all know powdered sugar, and you even know that on a pancake. So that is not much new under the sun. However, the syrup is interesting. It is in between the consistency of maple syrup and molasses. Back in the days, and some versions, still used apples to produce the syrup. This so called <em>appelstroop <\/em>(apple butter) is still available, but is now used more often as a bread topping. <em>Appelstroop <\/em>is thicker than normal <em>stroop <\/em>and is more like molasses.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pannenkoekenhuis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the beginning of the video, I briefly mention the <em>pannenkoekenhuis <\/em>in Chicago. Canada also has a chain that is called The Dutch Pannenkoeken House. A <em>pannenkoekenhuis <\/em>(pancake house) is a restaurant that specializes in pancakes, with all kinds of toppings, from sweet to savory. There are restaurants in the US that are similar, like IHOP. But IHOP does not serve the kind of pancake and the variety of toppings that these <em>pannenkoekenhuizen <\/em>normally do. There are also\u00a0<em>pannenkoekenboten,\u00a0<\/em>which are pancake boats. The idea is the same, just that these restaurants are located on boats.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 334px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/9\/96\/De_Pannenkoekenboot_%2813520176584%29.jpg\" aria-label=\"10118965\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  alt=\"\" width=\"324\" height=\"243\" \/ src=\"http:\/\/static.panoramio.com\/photos\/large\/10118965.jpg\"><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Pannenkoekenboot in Rotterdam.
