Every time the grand kids are here we make them. The fun part is to
open the oven when finished and let them see!! We call the Roller-
coaster Pancakes...and the name seems to fit!

Yeah, I'm trying to get an idea of the end result too. Is it served in
the pan and everyone just scoops out a portion or cut to squares and
served on a plate as "pieces"?

Ha! I read that so fast the first time, I didn't even notice the
spelling!

Roses are red
Violets are purple
Sugar is sweet
And so is Maple Syrple

Maybe that's where the spelling came from...hahaa

So does it bake up in big lumps or something? Does it make bubbles in
the dough that make it look all roller coastery???
I"m having a hard time picturing this.

You can bake them like popovers, or just in a single pan ... they
bubble up in big humps here and there..... like Yorkshire pudding,
sort of.

Think "Yorkshire Pudding."

If you compare the recipes, this is almost identical to Yorkshire
Pudding using butter instead of beef drippings and it looks like
the same dish. Depending on the shape of the pan (square or round) it
can be served in squares or wedges, with syrup, fruit topping, or
a squirt of lemon and powdered sugar.

A similar dish is called apple pancake and is the same recipe poured
over thinly sliced apples or even apple pie filling (or any other fruit.)

The batter is poured into very hot fat in a preheated dish/pan. Like
popovers, the heat causes the "rise."

Believe it or not but Elmer's makes great Dutch babies.

I need to google this thread so I can see that recipe. If they're
like a Yorkshire pudding, then they're like Dutch Babies and both use
egg to leaven. You don't even beat the egg whites separately like a
souffle, just whiz all the ingredients in the blender - or use a
whisk.

Then why does it also work to start the popovers in a cold oven
and cold pan?

I've read that the eggs are the leavening agent, just like for popovers
and yorkshire pudding, which also have no other leavening than the eggs.

Heat. They won't rise like that if you put them into the refrigerator
instead of the oven.

Obviously, I know that. But it is not the heat from a preheated
pan and oven. I also think the eggs must do it.
