Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk, at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 4 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 6 Tbsp unsalted butter, slightly cooled, divided
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt
toppings
  • lemon curd try my easy microwave curd recipe
  • fresh blueberries
  • powdered sugar

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425F. Set your oven rack to the middle and make sure there's plenty of room above it (don't set another rack on the next rung.) Slide your muffin pan into the cold oven when you turn it on.
  2. Add the milk. sugar, flour, eggs, 4 tablespoons of the melted and cooled butter, extract and salt into a blender. You can also use a food processor. Blend until smooth, this will take 15-30 seconds. Let the batter sit for 5-10 minutes.
  3. When the oven is at temperature, carefully remove the hot pan and brush each well with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter (it will sizzle.) Immediately pour the batter into the pan, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Slide it back into the oven and cook for about 15-17 minutes, or until the Dutch babies are puffed and lightly golden. Note: if your muffin cups are smaller or larger than mine, your baking time can vary slightly. It helps to do a test.
  4. Let the pancakes cool briefly. They will sink as they cool, but that's ok, because that will give you perfect little indentations for your toppings.
  5. Top each pancake with a dollop of lemon curd and a few berries. Dust with powdered sugar just before serving warm with maple syrup.
