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.

Tips:

Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. This will help the Dutch baby cook evenly and prevent sticking.
Make sure the butter is melted and sizzling before adding the batter. This will help the Dutch baby rise and puff up.
Don't open the oven door during baking. This will cause the Dutch baby to fall.
Serve the Dutch baby immediately. It is best when it is hot and fluffy.
