Dutch Baby

 

I recently discovered and fell in love with the Dutch Baby pancake!  You may have heard of it by another name.  It goes by many.  Dutch Baby, German Pancake, a Bismarck, Dutch Puff, Hooligan, Hootenanny...whatever you choose to call it, you'll for sure call it delicious.  We are currently a family of 6 with our foster placements so the recipe I'm posting is enough to make two 9x13 baking dishes and we eat every last bite.  Also, what I REALLY love about it, is that you mix it all up in your blender.  No mixing bowls, no whisks, just dump everything in and you're done!

12 eggs

1/2 cup sugar

1 tsp. salt

2 tsp. vanilla

2 cups milk

2 cups flour

2 sticks butter

Two 9x13 baking dishes

Place one stick of butter in each baking dish.  Place the baking dish in a cold oven.  Turn the oven on 425 to preheat.

While the oven is preheating and the butter is melting, add the eggs, sugar, salt, vanilla, and milk into a blender.  Blend for 30 seconds on high speed.

Add the flour to the egg mixture and pulse until incorporated.  Let sit until the oven is preheated.

Once the oven has preheated, carefully remove the hot baking dishes and slowly pour half of the mixture into each baking dish.

Place the baking dishes back into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges are super puffy and nice golden brown.

Serve immediately with all of your favorite pancake toppings.
