Poffertjes

Poffertjes are traditional Dutch batter cakes. Resembling small, fluffy pancakes, they are made with yeast and buckwheat flour. Typically, poffertjes are sweet treats served with powdered sugar and butter, and sometimes syrup or advocaat. A savoury variant with gouda cheese is also made. The first mention of Poffertjes is credited to a 1746 appendix to the cookbook Volmaakte Hollandsche keuken-meid. Poffertjes were first seen at a fair in Amsterdam in 1746. They are also known as 'brothers'. The Catholic Church claims they invented them, but there are doubts about that claim.
