CARAMEL-APPLE DUTCH BABY



Caramel-Apple Dutch Baby image

This recipe makes the perfect breakfast, brunch or sweet treat for a lazy weekend. Any 10-inch ovenproof pan or baking dish will work here, but for the puffiest and crispest pancake, use a cast-iron pan. Don't skimp on the amount of butter you melt in the pan in the first step; it prevents the pancake from sticking, and helps brown and crisp the Dutch baby while it bakes. The easy, no-fail caramel sauce infuses the apples with brown sugar and vanilla, while also serving as a syrup to drizzle over each slice. For maximum ooh and aahs, spoon the apples, caramel and all, into the center of the Dutch baby and serve it in the skillet. To keep the pancake crisp longer, serve the apples and caramel separately and allow guests to top their own.

APPLE DUTCH BABY



APPLE DUTCH BABY image

Categories     Fruit     Breakfast

Yield 1 huge pancake

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large or 3 medium apples, preferably tart ones like Granny Smith
4 tablespoons white sugar, divided
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/3 cup unsalted butter
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
5 eggs
Powdered or cinnamon sugar, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400°F. Peel, core, and quarter the apples, then cut them into medium slices (1/4-inch thick or less). Then cut the slices in halves or thirds. You should have about 3 cups of chopped apples. In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of sugar with the cinnamon and ginger and set aside. Cut the butter into chunks and place them in a deep cast iron skillet or 8x8-inch baking dish. Put the skillet or baking dish in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the butter is melted. Take the pan out of the oven and sprinkle the 1/3 cup brown sugar over the melted butter. Carefully spread the apples on top of the brown sugar and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the apples. Put the pan back in the oven to caramelize the apples and sugar. Whisk the flour with the remaining tablespoon of sugar, salt, and nutmeg. Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly with a large wire whisk to beat out any lumps. When the flour is smoothly incorporated into the milk, beat in the vanilla and the eggs one by one. Beat by hand for 2 minutes, or until foamy. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. By now the sugar should be bubbling around the apples. Take the pan out of the oven and pour the batter over the apples. Bake for about 20 more minutes or until center is set and sides are lightly browned. The pancake will puff up dramatically but fall after a few minutes after you take it out of the oven. If you want, serve with powdered sugar or more cinnamon sugar. I usually find that it is just sweet enough as it is.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. If you don't have one, you can use a regular oven-safe skillet, but the crust won't be as crispy.
  • Make sure the butter is sizzling before adding the apples. This will help to prevent them from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet with apples. You want them to be able to cook evenly.
  • Bake the apple baby for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  • Serve the apple baby immediately, topped with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or ice cream.

Conclusion:

The Dutch apple baby is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It's perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With its simple ingredients and stunning presentation, the apple baby is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a new breakfast recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
