Dutch Baby aka German Pancake
This one is an old family favorite. With the ingredients pretty much always on hand, we’ve had it for many a regular breakfast, to the point that some of our kids moaned and groaned when they heard the morning menu. So we’ve laid off a bit and only make it for everyone when we have a special reason, like delicious fresh fruit. (German Pancake with fresh mango or nectarines and whipped cream is pretty amazing…) Done right and it is like a warm cream puff with fresh fruit.
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 1 cup milk
- 9-10 large eggs
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp salt
-
Preheat oven to 400º
-
Place butter in bottom of glass 9×13? baking dish to melt and brown (works better if you cut it in to smaller chunks)
-
Mix dry ingredients, mix wet ingredients, combine and mix briskly for 30 seconds
-
You don’t want lumps, but some little ones are okay. Ideally, you’ll let this mixture stand for 5-10 mins while the butter browns
-
When the butter looks good, poor the entire mixture in to the pan and return to the oven
-
Bake until hugely puffy and golden brown
