Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put a pat of butter (1/2 Tablespoon) into each muffin tin. I love to use the USA Brand standard muffin tins and each cup measures 2.75 x 2.13 x 1.38 inches. Place the muffin tin in the oven and allow the butter to melt which should take several minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a blender, combine eggs, sugar, vanilla, milk, flour, and salt and blend until combined. Add the flour last so it is easier to blend. Scrape the sides of the blender to ensure there is no flour sticking to the blender and blend one more time until the batter is smooth.
  3. Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven once the butter is melted. Brush the melted butter all over the muffin tin, to the very top to ensure the batter won't stick to the muffin tin or swirl the butter around the pan to coat completely. Pour the batter into the muffin tins and return to the oven.
  4. Bake for 16-20 minutes or until the pancake puffs around the edges and is a light golden brown color. Do not open the oven for the first 15 minutes or the Dutch Baby will deflate.
  5. Remove from oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Top with maple syrup, fresh whipped cream, lemon curd, and berries.

Notes

  • How to know when the mini dutch babies are done baking:
  • These muffin tin Dutch babies are going to look puffy when baking in the oven. Do not open the oven or they will completely deflate. I suggest using the oven light to peek at them to see if they have turned a light golden brown color and if the edges are puffing up.
  • The outer edges are going to form a buttery, crusty wall. As soon as you pull them from the oven, they will begin to deflate which creates a warm, custardy texture in the center.
