Easy Dutch Baby Pancakes

Unlike most pancakes, Dutch babies are baked in the oven, rather than being fried. They are generally thicker and lighter than most pancakes.

A Dutch baby pancake is also sometimes called a German pancake, a Bismarck, a Dutch puff, a Hooligan, or a Hootenanny.

Dutch babies are great served with fresh berries, strawberries are my favorite.

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons butter

  • 6 large eggs

  • 1 cup whole or 2% milk

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • dash of salt

  • Powdered sugar and syrup for serving

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 425°F.

While it preheats, place butter in an ungreased 9x13-inch metal baking dish or cast iron skillet and let it melt in the oven.

In a blender, combine eggs, milk, flour, salt, and vanilla extract.

Blend until smooth. Once the butter is melted, carefully pour the batter into the baking dish over the melted butter.

Bake for 22-27 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and puffy.

Serve your Dutch Baby Pancake hot, sprinkled generously with powdered sugar and syrup.
