German pancake...breakfast for dinner - why not??

Breakfast for dinner, always a hit! Try this "German Pancake" with homemade syrup, sausages and fresh cut fruit. Turkey sausages are available everywhere now, they taste great and offer a tasty alternative to bacon or pork sausage.

German Pancake:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prep a 10 x 15 deep baking dish with 2 tbsp. melted butter (use a brush to get it up the sides of the pan. In your blender: 10 eggs, 1-1/2 c. flour, 1-1/2 c. milk, 3/4 tsp. salt. Blend thoroughly and pour into prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
Syrup:
In a small saucepan mix (1/3 c + 1Tbsp) sugar, (3Tbsp + 1 tsp) buttermilk, 2 Tbsp butter (no marg), 1-1/2 tsp cornsyrup, and 1/4 tsp baking soda. Heat till boils and changes to carmel colour. Remove from heat and add 1/2 tsp vanilla. (A little goes a long way...) Serve as syrup on individual servings of pancake. Leftovers are great on vanilla icecream.

Meanwhile, get those sausages fried up and cut up some fresh fruit or make a quick fruit salad.
