It worked! I knew I could make German pancakes a little healthier. I decided to forgo the stick of butter you're supposed to melt in each pan before adding the batter and just sprayed it with a little Pam. I cut out 88 GRAMS OF FAT right here. They weren't quite as good or filling but since they normally make me feel a bit queasy with all that grease--I think I'll do it this way again. And that way there's no guilt when we pile on the pie filling, whipped cream, nutella, etc., right?

Fat is where it's at

Good idea! Glad you tried it first...now I'm gonna make them that way. I like the idea of pie filling and everything too. We usually just do powdered sugar. Sounds good and with saving all those grams of fat, why not?
I will never give up the butter. I do use just a few tbsps and then to finish I dust with powdered sugar. We only fill ours with tons and tons of strawberries. That makes it healthy in my book!
No butter? Blasphemy!
