Instructions

  1. Let eggs and milk sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before preparing batter. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl whisk the room temperature eggs. Add flour, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla to the bowl. Mix by hand until just combined. It is OK if there are still a few clumps.
  3. Place oil or butter in a 9-10 inch cast iron skillet and heat up in the oven until the oil has just melted, about 1-2 minutes. Pour batter into skillet and bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 300 degrees, without removing the pan, and continue cooking for 5 minutes.
  4. Top Dutch Baby pancake with fresh berries, powdered sugar, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Prep-Ahead Instructions:
  • You can prep the toppings by slicing the fruit or making whipped cream the day before if needed.
  • Storage Directions:
  • If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 to 5 days. For the best results, do not store the toppings on the pancake. Again, freeze these pancakes without toppings. They should last in a freezer safe bag or container for up to 1 to 2 months. These warm up beautifully in a skillet on the stove over medium heat or in the oven at 300°F. You can use a microwave, but they might get soggy.
  • Recipe Tips:
  • Nutrition facts are calculated without any additional toppings.
  • Other toppings you can try include: maple syrup, honey, Nutella, peanut butter, cinnamon apples, or coconut whipped cream.
  • Use some elbow grease. Be sure to whip up the eggs before adding in the rest of the ingredients.
  • Take it easy. Once the eggs are mixed, do not overwork the batter after adding in the rest of the ingredients, or the pancake will be flat.
  • Get it hot. Melt the coconut oil in the skillet before pouring the batter in.
  • Don't peek. Leave the oven door shut after you put the pancake in so no heat escapes.
  • Go crazy. You can top this dish with just about anything! Fresh fruit, chocolate, and cream are just a few options.
