Provided by Melissa d'Arabian : Food Network

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons butter
3 eggs
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup milk, heated 20 to 30 seconds in the microwave
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Pinch salt
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Put the butter in a large, ovenproof, nonstick saute pan and place in the oven.
  • Meanwhile, in a blender, combine the eggs, flour, warm milk, sugar, vanilla extract and pinch of salt, and blend on medium-high speed until uniform. (If mixing by hand, combine the eggs with the milk until the mixture is light yellow and no longer stringy, about 1 minute. Add the flour, sugar, vanilla, and pinch of salt, and whisk vigorously to remove the lumps, about 30 seconds.)
  • Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven. The butter should be melted. Swirl the butter around the pan to coat completely, and then pour the remaining butter into the batter and pulse to blend. Pour the batter into the hot pan and return the pan to the oven. Cook until the pancake is puffed in the center and golden brown along the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Using a spatula, remove the entire Dutch baby from the pan and place on a cooling rack for a few minutes to allow the steam to escape without condensing along the bottom and rendering the pancake soggy. Dust with confectioners' sugar when cooled slightly. Slice the pancake into 8 wedges on a serving platter or cutting board.

DUTCH BABY (AKA: GERMAN PANCAKE OR PUFF PANCAKE)



Dutch Baby (Aka: German Pancake or Puff Pancake) image

My sister Daralyn introduced this recipe to our family soon after she was married. Her recipe evolved from a favorite breakfast, to our families standard birthday breakfast. When served for a birthday we add candles and a round of "Happy Birthday" but it tastes just as good without those to amenities!

LINDY'S GLUTEN-FREE DUTCH BABY (GERMAN PANCAKE OR PUFF PANCAKE)



Lindy's Gluten-Free Dutch Baby (German Pancake or Puff Pancake) image

This is the same basic recipe as my Dutch Baby (German Pancake) recipe (#138877) except my talented niece, Lindy was able to find just the right gluten-free flour combo to make this an excellent recipe for those who are gluten intolerant. I often will add 1 to 2 cups of fruit to the top of the batter (blueberries, sliced peaches or sliced apples) just before baking and serve it with maple syrup, powdered sugar and a little lemon juice.
