Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 cup pecan halves
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup buttermilk
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 eggs, separated
1 cup smashed bananas (about 2 large bananas), plus 1 banana, sliced
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat. Add the brown sugar and stir until the sugar begins to melt. Add the pecans and cook for 2 more minutes. Transfer the pecans to a small dish and set aside. Reserve the skillet (with any residual brown sugar) for the pancake.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
  • Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a small pan. In a large bowl, add the buttermilk, vanilla, egg yolks and melted butter and whisk until blended. Gradually whisk in the flour mixture. Stir in the smashed bananas. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form and gently fold into the banana mixture.
  • Sprinkle the pecans over the bottom of the reserved skillet along with the banana slices. Gently spoon the batter into the skillet. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Invert the pancake onto a serving plate and dust with confectioners' sugar. Cut into wedges and serve with maple syrup.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons butter, melted and divided
2 3/8 ounces all-purpose flour, approximately 1/2 cup
3 tablespoons vanilla sugar, plus extra for serving
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup whole milk, room temperature
2 large eggs, room temperature
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place 2 tablespoons of the melted butter into a 10-inch cast iron skillet and place in the oven. Set the remaining tablespoon of melted butter aside to cool slightly. Wait 10 minutes before assembling the other ingredients.
  • Place the flour, vanilla sugar, salt, milk, eggs and remaining tablespoon of melted butter into the bowl of a food processor or blender and process for 30 seconds. Carefully pour the batter into the preheated skillet. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until the edges are puffed and brown.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use a well-seasoned cast iron or other oven-proof skillet.
  • Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before adding the batter.
  • Do not open the oven door during baking, as this can cause the Dutch baby to fall.
