CHEF JOHN'S DUTCH BABIES



Chef John's Dutch Babies image

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.

CHEF JOHN'S BLUEBERRY DUTCH BABY

You're in for a huge treat with this blueberry studded baked pancake--it's rich and satisfying but surprisingly light tasting. The true magic of a Dutch baby is the contrast of texture between the crispy, crusty outside and the soft, custardy, fruity center. This version is not only gorgeous and delicious, but it's fun and simple to make! There's no sugar in the batter, so all the sweetness comes from the berries and the powdered sugar. For a sweeter version, serve with maple syrup like regular blueberry pancakes.

3 tablespoons clarified butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

  • Cut in wedges to serve and drizzle with maple syrup.
