Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the dough.

Add the egg.

Pour in most of the milk and mix the batter until obtaining a fairly thick batter.

Add milk if necessary.

Add sugar and salt and mix again.

Place a warm damp towel on the pan and let stand at room temperature, away from drafts, for 1 hour.

Pour the batter into a squeeze bottle.

Place the poffertjes pan on low heat, add a knob of butter in the center of the pan and spread, using a kitchen brush or paper towel. Spread the melted butter in all the holes of the pan.

Fill each dimple with the batter, three-quarters full.

Using 2 skewers (or a skewer and a fork), turn the poffertjes over while the batter is still a little wet on top.

Cook them on both sides until golden brown.

Serve with a little butter and sprinkle the poffertjes with powdered sugar or sugar.
