Description

This light and airy Baked German Pancake, or Dutch Baby, is a delightful breakfast treat. It’s easy to make, requiring just a few ingredients, and puffs beautifully in the oven. Serve it warm with powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or syrup for a delicious start to your day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch oven-safe skillet (such as cast iron) in the oven to heat while you prepare the batter.
  • Prepare the Batter: In a blender or mixing bowl, combine eggs, flour, milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Blend or whisk until smooth and lump-free.
  • Add Butter to the Pan: Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and add the butter. Swirl the butter around until it melts and coats the bottom and sides of the pan.
  • Pour in the Batter: Pour the batter into the skillet with the melted butter. Immediately return the skillet to the oven.
  • Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown around the edges.
  • Serve: Remove from the oven, and let the pancake cool slightly—it will deflate a bit as it cools. Serve warm, topped with powdered sugar, fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a squeeze of lemon juice.

Notes

  • Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the butter and batter for the best puff.
  • This pancake can be topped with various fruits, nuts, or even chocolate chips based on your preference.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture, as it will deflate after cooling.
