DUTCH BABY
This large, fluffy pancake is excellent for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dessert any time of year. And it comes together in about five blessed minutes. Just dump all of the ingredients into a blender, give it a good whirl, pour it into a heated skillet sizzling with butter, and pop it into the oven. Twenty-five minutes later? Bliss.

Lower oven temperature to 300 degrees and bake five minutes longer.

DUTCH BABY
I've had these a lot at B&B's, probably because they're delicious and dependable if the right technique is used. This dish is puffy around the outside and flat in the center offering the perfect nest for sliced fresh fruit. It's airy, light and makes a beautiful presentation. The batter can be made up to a day ahead and refrigerated.

CHEF JOHN'S DUTCH BABIES
I've always been fascinated by how many different breakfast foods you can create using just milk, eggs, and flour; and this is one of the more interesting examples. Especially considering the unusual, and borderline disturbing name. Sometimes called German pancakes, these have very little to do with Germany, and nothing to do with the Dutch. Apparently they were invented by German immigrants who were referred to as Dutch.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Peel, core, and slice the apple 1/8 inch thick. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a 9-inch ovenproof crêpe pan or skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the apple, 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar, and the cinnamon and toss well. Sauté the apple for 5 to 7 minutes until tender, tossing occasionally. Spread the apple out in the pan and keep hot over low heat.
- Meanwhile, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the microwave. In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla. In a small bowl, combine the flour, the remaining tablespoon of granulated sugar, and the salt. Whisk the flour mixture into the milk mixture, whisking until there are no lumps. Pour the batter over the cooked apple in the hot pan and immediately place in the oven.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the pancake is puffed and the edges start to get crispy and browned. Dust lightly with sifted confectioners' sugar, cut in wedges, and serve hot with maple syrup.
MEAN'S DUTCH BABIES
A simple and tasty breakfast/brunch treat. This is an adopted recipe from the RecipeZaar account, and I am delighted to be the new owner of such a winning recipe. If you would like the inside of the finished dish to be a little less "egg-y" then cut the number of eggs down to 3, and many many reviewers also found that just 3 Tablespoons of butter worked better for them. Either way they did it, they all agreed that the taste was great. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Mix flour, salt and milk well.
- Add sugar; add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This can be done by hand or with a stand mixer.
- Melt butter in an ovenproof dish or cast iron pan in the oven.
- When butter is completely melted and pan is hot, pour in batter.
- Bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes.
- Serve with maple syrup, jam or powdered sugar with a squeeze of lemon.
Tips:
- For a crispy Dutch baby, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) before mixing the batter.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or a 9-inch ovenproof skillet for baking the Dutch baby. This will help prevent sticking and ensure an even cook.
- Make sure the butter is hot enough in the skillet when you pour in the batter. This will create a nice crust on the bottom of the Dutch baby.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough Dutch baby.
- Bake the Dutch baby until it is puffed and golden brown, usually 15-20 minutes. If you're not sure if it's done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the Dutch baby is ready.
- Let the Dutch baby cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it set and prevent it from collapsing.
- Serve the Dutch baby with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, powdered sugar, fruit, and syrup.
Conclusion:
A Dutch baby is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It's perfect for a lazy weekend morning or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a light and fluffy Dutch baby that will impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a new breakfast idea, give Dutch babies a try!
