Savory Dutch Baby
Description
In this Savory Dutch Baby, a smooth batter of all-purpose flour, eggs, and whole milk is blended and poured into a sizzling hot skillet coated with melted butter. Baking at 450°F causes the batter to puff dramatically, developing crisp, golden edges while maintaining a tender center. The addition of salt and freshly ground black pepper seasons the batter simply but effectively.
The Dutch Baby is served topped with slices of prosciutto, creamy avocado wedges, and a runny sunny side up egg, which adds richness and a luscious texture. The contrast between the crisp pancake edges and the silky toppings creates a delightful mouthfeel. A drizzle of Sriracha may be added for a spicy kick.
This dish makes a substantial breakfast or brunch and can be sliced and served family-style straight from the skillet. Preparing the toppings just before serving helps maintain their freshness and texture.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 egg large
- 1 cup milk whole
- 1/2 heaping teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons butter melted, unsalted
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 1 egg large
- 2 oz (60g) prosciutto
- 1 avocado
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a blender, combine the flour, eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Blend until smooth and free of lumps, about 20 seconds.
- In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter over high heat until foamy. Add the batter and immediately place the skillet in the oven. Bake until the pancake is deep golden brown and puffed around the edges, about 18 minutes.
- Cook the egg sunny side up, ensuring the yolk remains runny. Cut the avocado into wedges and cover with plastic wrap to prevent browning.
- Remove the Dutch Baby pancake from the oven, and place the egg, prosciutto, and avocado in the center. Slice into pieces and serve immediately with Sriracha.
