Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 eggs
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 cup cheese, shredded (use a good melting type like cheddar or Jack)
1 cup cooked sausage (you can use crumbly sausage or even better, smoked sausage cut into bite sized pieces)
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

Steps:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Put margarine and sausage into the baking dish and place in the oven to heat about 5 minutes before you add the batter. Keep a close eye on it because it will burn if you let it.
Blend eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a blender or with a mixer. Add the flour 1/4c at a time until just incorporated evenly (don't overmix otherwise you'll activate the gluten in the flour and have a thick dutch baby rather than a fluffy one).
Add batter immediately after it's ready to hot baking dish.
Sprinkle cheese over the batter and bake for 20-25 minutes, until puffy and Golden brown.
Let it cool a few minutes before cutting- it will deflate during this period.
Enjoy!
Note: this is my family recipe, and it was is told to me as a ratio- 1/4 milk & flour for every egg- feel free to go up or down a size on your baking dish just adjusting according to the ratio!

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound breakfast sausage, casings removed and meat crumbled
1/2 pound breakfast sausage, casings removed and meat crumbled
1/2 pound white button mushrooms, stems removed and caps cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped shallots
1 cup grated Gruyere or Swiss cheese
Tossed green salad, for serving

Steps:

Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 425 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, milk, flour, 2 tablespoons of the melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl or measuring cup until smooth (a few lumps are fine); cover the batter, and refrigerate until needed.
Cook the sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up any big chunks with the back of a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes; transfer to a small bowl, and set aside. Lower the heat to medium, and add the remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter to the skillet. Once the butter is bubbling, add the mushrooms, parsley, shallots and some salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are lightly browned and softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sausage. Put the skillet in the oven to heat the mushroom-sausage mixture through, 2 minutes. Sprinkle the Gruyere evenly over the mixture, and carefully pour in the batter (make sure that the sausage and mushrooms are evenly distributed over the bottom of the pan). Bake until browned and puffed, 20 to 22 minutes. Serve immediately with salad.
