Recipe by the Book: Sweet German Pancakes for Your Inner Hedgehog

In the latest entertaining and hilarious Professor Dr. Dr. Moritz-Maria Von Igelfeld novel, our hopelessly out-of-touch hero is forced to confront uppity librarians, the rector of the university, and a possible hostile takeover, all while trying to remain studiously above it all.

Much of Your Inner Hedgehog by Alexander McCall Smith is set at the Institute of Romantic Philology in Regensburg, Germany. To put your reading group in the Von Igelfeld spirit, we’re pleased to share a traditional German sweet pancake recipe, also known as Dutch Baby pancakes, inspired by the novel’s setting. This delectable breakfast dessert is sure to be a hit at your next meeting!
