Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place a standard 12-cup muffin tin into the oven while it preheats to ensure it's hot when you add the butter.

In a blender or a large bowl, combine the eggs, whole milk, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend or whisk until the mixture is completely smooth and thin, with no lumps of flour remaining.

Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven using oven mitts. Place approximately 1/2 teaspoon of unsalted butter into each cup of the muffin tin.

Return the muffin tin to the hot oven for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the butter is fully melted and bubbling. This helps create the crisp edges of the pancakes.

Working quickly, remove the muffin tin from the oven. Pour the prepared batter into each cup, filling them about halfway. The batter will expand significantly during baking.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the mini pancakes are dramatically puffed, golden brown around the edges, and cooked through in the center.

Remove the muffin tin from the oven. Serve the mini German pancakes immediately as they will gently deflate as they cool. They are best enjoyed warm.
