Recipe for Dutch Babies. Can you say YUM?!
There is a restaurant here in town that makes delicious Dutch Babies. So, you can imagine how thrilled I was to find this recipe for Dutch Babies in The Homestyle Amish Kitchen Cookbook. Now, I’m sharing it with you!
2 eggs
½ cup milk
½ cup flour
½ tsp. salt
pinch of nutmeg (optional)
2 T. butter
2 T. powdered sugar for dusting.
Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or heavy frying pan with sides inside oven and preheat oven to 475°.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat eggs with a whisk until light and frothy. Add milk and stir. Gradually whisk in flour, salt, and nutmeg.
Remove skillet from oven and reduce oven temperature to 425°. Melt butter in hot skillet so that the bottom and sides are completely coated with butter. Pour the batter into the skillet and immediately return to oven.
Bake at 425° until puffed and lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve immediately, either plain or with maple syrup.
Note: You can easily double this recipe if you have a larger frying pan.

This sounds really good. Is it eaten as a breakfast food or dessert?

Typically it’s eaten for breakfast. At least that’s when I eat it!
