Dutch baby pancakes are a fun and delicious take on regular pancake recipes. The ingredients for dutch baby pancakes are pretty similar to what you already know- flour, eggs, milk, vanilla, and a bit of sugar.
The main difference between these dutch pancakes and regular pancakes is the way that it is cooked. The batter has a high fat content and then you’ll pour into a hot cast iron skillet instead of frying it on a stove top. When it’s done, you’ll be left with beautifully golden pancakes that you can serve with fruits, yogurt, and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
How To Make Dutch Baby Pancakes
You will need:
- a cast iron skillet to bake the pancakes
- a blender to combine all the ingredients
- good hand towels or oven mitts to safely remove the skillet from the oven
