A delightful twist on the classic German pancake, this recipe offers a fluffy and flavorful treat perfect for any time of the day.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for the best rise in your Dutch Baby.
In a blender, combine the eggs and milk. Blend until frothy.
Blending the eggs and milk thoroughly helps create a light and airy batter.
Add the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract to the blender. Blend until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to prevent the batter from becoming dense.
Place the butter in an oven-safe skillet and put it in the oven until the butter melts and starts to bubble.
Swirl the melted butter around the skillet to coat it evenly.
Carefully pour the batter into the hot skillet and return it to the oven.
Pouring the batter into a hot skillet helps create a crispy edge.
Bake for 15 minutes at 400°F (200°C), then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 6-8 minutes.
Keep an eye on the Dutch Baby as it bakes to ensure it doesn't overcook.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the Dutch Baby cool slightly before serving.
Serve with your favorite toppings like powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or syrup for added flavor.
