edit: I love how Europeans still struggle to believe that these are what America sees as pancakes. For context, these buttermilk pancakes were so big that I only ordered two and could only eat half of the second one. If you went to our “International House of Pancakes(IHOP)” and ordered pancakes, this is what you’d get. America really is on another level.
what they are and how to call them is a highly debated topic accross the german speaking countries.
they are however baked in fat just like doughnuts, i don’t know if the used batter is the same however.
Wow, maybe less healthy then US pancakes.
this is dessert not breakfast food ;)
In the states there are 2 general types of donuts. One is cake which looks similar to the pic. The other is yeast which consists of flaky thin layers and is more like a deep fried biscuit.
To be perfectly honest I don’t think Ive actually had one in Berlin. I was binging on pfeffer brezel while I was on holiday in germany. but the shitty Norwegian version is made with doughnut dough.
