Franconian-Hohenlohe pastry, the recipe comes from my grandmother.

Whisk the eggs with milk and salt. Stir in the flour until a thick pancake batter forms. Let stand for 5 minutes. Heat the butter in a deep-sided pan and add the batter, making sure it’s about 1.5 cm thick. Turn when the bottom is golden brown and return to the oven. Break up the batter with a spatula and tear it into pieces about 1-2 cm in size, then bake until golden brown. Sprinkle with powdered sugar after serving. Apple compote is a good accompaniment. Plum compote also goes well with this dish.
