Dutch Baby Recipe
Description
This Dutch Baby Recipe begins by preheating an oven and melting butter in a skillet to provide a rich base for the batter. The batter itself is a blend of eggs, half and half (or milk or cream), vanilla extract, flour, kosher salt, and sugar blended until bubbly, ensuring even rise and lightness.
Once poured into the hot buttered skillet, the batter bakes at a high temperature until puffed and crisp along the edges, turning golden brown while the center remains soft yet set. The result is a visually impressive skillet pancake that deflates shortly after removal from the oven.
This versatile dish is commonly topped with confectioners' sugar, fresh berries, sautéed apples, or maple syrup, serving well as a breakfast or brunch item. The recipe as photographed uses a 10 1/2 inch skillet, which affects the thickness and cooking time.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 large egg
- 1 cup half and half or heavy cream or whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 /2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 /4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
Optional toppings
- confectioners' sugar
- fresh berries
- apple sauteed
- maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425º F. Add butter to medium skillet and place into oven as it preheats to melt the butter.
- While butter is melting, add eggs, half and half, vanilla, flour, salt, and sugar to a blender. Blend on high speed until the batter thickens and bubbles begin to form at the top of the batter.
- Pour batter into the melted butter in the skillet. Place into the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, until it has puffed up on the sides and they have begun to turn golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and serve quickly with any of the optional toppings as it deflates quickly.
Notes
- This recipe was prepared in a 10 1/2 inch skillet, which influences the texture and baking time.
