Gail, try this:
Next time you make these pancakes, put some either heavy duty, or quick
release foil in the pan. Then lightly grease with a little Crisco
shortening (either plain or butter flavour).
Then pour batter in the greased and foiled pan, and off to the races you go!
Let us know how this turns out.

Subject: [CnD] German Oven Pancakes
I made these for breakfast this morning for my daughter.
I thought I greased the pan well but they stuck anyway. I used a little
olive oil. Didn't have any Pam and besides after all I've been reading
planning to ween myself off using it.
I used a nine-inch-round baking pan. Could this have made a difference?
The recipe itself is not sweet. The toppings make the sweetness.
It's good plain.
For my daughter I sprinkled some powdered sugar on top along with a cup of
Blueberries and a dallop of whip cream.
She was happy.
German Oven Pancakes Recipe
1/2 cup of all-purpose flour, sifted
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon of salt
Preheat oven to 450F. If you have a convection oven, set it at 425F – the
pancakes rise even higher on the convection setting.
Lightly beat eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the milk, melted butter, salt
and sugar. Gradually add flour to egg mixture, a spoonful at a time. Have
your child help you by spooning the flour in while you whisk by hand. Make
sure the flour is well incorporated in the batter with no lumps, but do
not over-mix, as you want to keep the pancake light.
Lightly spray a 9″-11″ oven-safe skillet with cooking spray. Pour batter
in the skillet. Bake 12-18 minutes, just until the edges are golden. Check
your pancake at the 12 minute mark. It’s fun to turn on the oven light and
watch the pancake form!
Note: Try experimenting with different pans and skillets – just as long as
you use something at least 9″ wide and oven-safe. You could also divide
the batter into two smaller pans and have them bake side by side and see
which one rises higher. Just make sure that your oven rack is in the
middle position or lower. Top with fruit granola, yogurt, powdered sugar,
syrup, toasted almonds or fruit butters. Drizzle with caramel, chocolate
syrup, honey or maple syrup.
