Muffin tin Dutch babies are the sweetest, easiest way to make Dutch babies for a crowd. 

Mini Dutch Baby Pancakes

all-purpose flour

milk

eggs

sugar

vanilla extract

salt

unsalted butter

Powdered sugar

Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and remove any racks above it. Place a standard (12-well) muffin pan on the rack, and heat the oven to 425ºF. 

Place 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup whole or 2% milk, 4 large eggs, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt in a blender or food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Blend for 1 minute — it will be very liquidy. Let the batter rest in the blender or processor for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut 6 tablespoons unsalted butter into 12 pieces. 

Carefully remove the preheated muffin pan from the oven. Add 1 piece of butter to each well. Pour the batter into the wells, about 1/3 cup per well (don’t worry if the butter isn’t completely melted). 

Bake until the Dutch babies are puffed and lightly golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool for 1 minute before dusting with powdered sugar or filling with jam before serving. 

Dutch baby puff pancakes are so easy to make and only require a few ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen!

These puffed up beauties are actually a sweet version of a Yorkie and are of German origin. Normally eaten for breakfast, make them dessert with boozy, syrupy cherries and ice cream

Dutch baby pancake with drunken cherries

plain flour

tsp vanilla extract

tbsp vegetableor sunflower oil

cherries

golden caster sugar

tbsp brandyor kirsch

vanilla ice cream, to serve

Tip the flour into a large bowl, make a well in the centre, crack in the eggs, then add the milk and vanilla. Use a large whisk to beat the eggs into the milk, slowly incorporating the flour, until you have a smooth batter. Set aside.

Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Pour the oil into an ovenproof skillet pan, frying pan or tart Tatin tin (mine was 20cm in diameter) and place on the middle shelf to heat up &ndash; remove the top shelf, if you can, as the pancake will puff up as it cooks.

Tip the cherries, sugar and brandy into a frying pan with 2 tbsp of the syrup. Bring to a simmer, then bubble until the liquid is syrupy, adding a splash more cherry syrup if the cherries look dry. Set aside to cool a little.

When the pan is red hot, pull out the oven tray and pour in the batter &ndash; it should sizzle as it hits the pan. Quickly close the oven and leave undisturbed to cook for 20-25 mins until it looks like a giant Yorkshire pudding and is deep golden brown. Don&rsquo;t be tempted to open the door too early as it will sink. Serve the pancake in the pan, topped with ice cream and syrupy cherries.

The best weekend mornings start with a cast-iron skillet and involve copious dollops of whipped cream. This Buttermilk Dutch Baby offers perfectly crisp edges encircling a soft, crepe-like center prime for drizzling, dolloping, and smearing with all manner of sweet toppings.

Buttermilk Dutch Baby

(roughly 2/3 cup) all-purpose flour

(roughly 2/3 cup) buttermilk

tsp almond extract

nutmeg

cinnamon

tsp nutmeg

cardamom,

Kosher salt

apples, blueberries

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, buttermilk, eggs, sugar, almond extract, and nutmeg until well-combined.

Place butter in a 10-inch cast-iron pan (or other oven-safe pan) and place in the oven. Allow the butter to melt fully. Watch closely, lightly browned butter is fun but do not allow the butter to burn.

Once the butter is fully melted, give the pan a quick swirl and then add the batter to the pan on top of the butter. There will be some separation of butter and batter but do not be tempted to stir this into your batter or your Dutch baby will not bake properly.

Return the pan to the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Then lower the heat to 300 degrees F / 150 C and bake for another 5 minutes.

Remove pan from oven and dress with your choice of toppings. I prefer warm fruit (see below for brown butter fruit recipes) and whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar or powdered sugar.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring occasionally. The butter will foam and then as the foam starts to dissipate the butter will begin to brown quickly. Once the color is amber, remove the pan from heat and immediately.

Add the brown sugar cinnamon, nutmeg, and fruit of your choice, stirring to combine. Return the pan to heat over medium-low, stirring often until the fruit has reached your desired level of softness. If the sugar syrup begins to boil, lower the heat so it maintains a simmer.

Serve over top of the Dutch baby with a dollop of whipped cream.

Optional topping - Brown Butter Spiced Apples, Peaches, or Blueberries

This Savory Buttermilk Herb Dutch Baby starts with a simple buttermilk batter which nestles into a puddle of melted butter in a hot cast-iron skillet. Before it takes a turn in the oven, the top is dressed with a generous sprinkle of fresh chives, dill, and tarragon. The resulting savory brunch dish offers lovely crisp edges encircling a soft, crepe-like center that is perfect for topping with all manner of savory toppings -- my favorite is a measure of smoked salmon, fresh tomatoes, and a lavish dollop of mascarpone!

Savory Buttermilk Herb Dutch Baby

80 g (roughly 2/3 cup) all-purpose flour

160 g (roughly 2/3 cup) buttermilk

tsp Kosher salt

tbsp fresh chives, chopped

tbsp fresh dill, chopped

tsp fresh tarragon, chopped

oz smoked salmon (or lox)

cherry tomatoes, sliced

oz mascarpone cheese (may sub

lemon

chopped fresh chives, dill,

black pepper

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, buttermilk, eggs, and salt until well-combined.

Place butter in a 10-inch cast-iron pan (or other oven-safe pan) and place in the oven. Allow the butter to melt fully. Watch closely as the butter will begin to brown if left in too long. Lightly browned butter is lovely, but you don&#8217;t want it to burn.

Once the butter is fully melted, remove the pan from the oven and give it a quick swirl to coat. Add the batter to the pan on top of the butter. There will be some separation of butter and batter but do not be tempted to stir this into your batter or your Dutch baby will not bake properly.

Sprinkle the top of the Dutch baby batter with the fresh chopped herbs.

Remove the pan from the oven and dress with your desired toppings. I prefer smoked salmon, fresh tomatoes, a dollop of lemon mascarpone, and a sprinkle of fresh herbs, flaky salt, and cracked black pepper (as noted above).

Buttermilk Herb Dutch Baby

In a small bowl, combine the mascarpone, lemon zest, and a generous pinch of Kosher salt using a small whisk or a sturdy spatula. Once combined, reserve to the side until ready to top.

*If you choose to substitute cream cheese for the mascarpone, allow to soften at room temp before working with it. Using a hand mixer, beat it with a splash of milk (1-2 tbsp), a pinch of salt, and lemon zest until it takes on a creamy consistency similar to mascarpone.

Optional toppings

This&nbsp;Apple Dutch Baby Pancake is like a dream come true! It puffs up in the oven beautifully. Topped with tender and sweet caramelized apples!

Apple Dutch Baby Pancake

unsalted butter, divided ((4 chunks of 1 tablespoon each))

Confectioners sugar

apples, peeled and sliced ((¼ inch thick))

brown sugar

maple syrup

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place a 10 inch cast iron skillet in the oven to heat up.

Caramelized Apples: In a skillet, cook the sliced apples with cinnamon, brown sugar, maple syrup, and butter for about 10-15 minutes, until softened and caramelized. Set aside.

Combine eggs,  flour, milk, and granulated sugar in a blender. Blend until well combined.

Remove hot cast iron skillet from oven. Melt the 4 tablespoons of butter in the hot skillet, swirling it around to coat and cover the pan.

Add the pancake mix from the blender to the prepared hot skillet, and return to the oven. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, until puffed up. DO NOT open the oven before time is up, it will deflate the pancake. Instead, use the oven light and peek through the window if you can. If not, just trust the bake time and try at 22 mins.

Serve immediately with the caramelized apples. Dust with confectioners sugar. Enjoy!

I love outdoor cooking, especially when I'm camping, and waking up to a Dutch Oven Dutch Baby smothered in sweet berries is such a treat for my family!

Dutch Oven Dutch Baby

butter

vanilla

lemon juice (to squeeze on berries, if desired)

Using a 12 inch (8 quart) dutch oven, prepare 24 charcoals.

In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, vanilla, and lemon zest (this can be done ahead of time). When you're ready to cook, add the flour and salt and whisk together until well blended.

When the coals are nice and hot, place 8 coals directly under the dutch oven. Add the cube of butter and allow to melt. Once melted, add the batter to the pot, cover, and add remaining 16 coals to the lid.

Rotate the lid 1/4 turn every 5 minutes and allow the dutch baby to cook until set, about 25 minutes. It should puff up all the way to the lid and once the lid is removed it will fall. Remove from heat.

Cover with berries, powdered sugar, and a squeeze of lemon. Replace lid and allow the berries to warm before serving. Cut into 6 slices and enjoy!
