Dutch Baby Pancake Recipe

Hi Everyone, I’ve been wanting to share this Dutch Baby Pancake Recipe for a several weeks now since I started making them this Summer. I have seen other bloggers make them and heard of the recipe. One day, when we were vacationing on Long Beach Island, I saw Joy the Baker (a blogger I follow) make on on her Instagram Stories. I didn’t actually use her recipe but watching her make one just finally made me make one, the timing was right too, it was breakfast time 🙂

After making one, I had to make another and then I knew I had to share with everyone here on LLS because it’s such an easy, great recipe to have in your back pocket.

It’s so easy to customize with your favorite toppings. It reminds me of a big popover with it’s egg-y flavor; it’s so good that when I am eating one, I feel like I just can’t get enough.

I topped this Dutch baby pancake with strawberry jam and pancake syrup but confectioner’s sugar and fresh fruit is a lovely way to enjoy it too.

Ingredients

Batter Ingredients

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons granulated white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Optional Toppings

• jam or jelly
• confectioner's sugar
• chocolate syrup

Instructions

1. In a medium-large mixing bowl, using a whisk, mix the flour, milk, 2 eggs, sugar, vanilla extract and salt. The batter should be liquid-y. Allow the batter to rest for 20-25 minutes.
2. While the batter is resting, melt the butter on the stove top, in a skillet. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. When the batter is ready, add the batter to the melted butter.
3. Bake for 15-20 minutes. When the Dutch Baby Pancake is done (use oven mitts, the skillet will be very hot!), take out of the oven. It will be puffy, and deflate pretty fast.
4. You can serve it right out of the pan. Add your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
