A long-favored fixture of winter festivals in the Netherlands, poffertjes are light, puffy, miniature pancakes that are traditionally served with a bit of butter and powdered sugar. They’re typically made from a simple recipe of sweet, yeasted batter, but require a highly specialized skillet called a poffertjespan to attain their perfectly snackable, one-or-two-bite size. In the spirit of foodie festivity, and in recognition of the fact that most of us don’t have a spare poffertjespan lying around, we’re offering Trader Joe’s Maple Flavored Poffertjes this holiday season to keep spirits bright, hearts warm, and breakfasts sweet and satisfying. Our frozen Poffertjes are flavored with rich maple sugar to give each bite the feeling of a pancake covered in maple syrup, and take less than a minute to heat a serving in the microwave. Like the traditional Dutch treat they were inspired by, they can be topped with melted butter and a sprinkling of powdered sugar, or accompanied by your favorite fruit preserves or even more maple syrup, to match your mood. Portionable enough to be enjoyed as a quick snack, sweet enough to be enjoyed as a dessert, we particularly enjoy our Maple Flavored Poffertjes when served as a side for bigger breakfast situations — like the morning after a big holiday feast, for instance.
