Dutch Baby Cake

Toppings

Instructions
 

  • Prep oven: Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
  • Make dutch baby batter: Combine flour, milk, eggs, vanilla, salt, and lemon zest and blend until smooth. Set aside.
  • Cook dutch baby pancake: Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. When butter is sizzling and starting to brown, pour batter into hot skillet and immediately transfer to oven. Bake 16-19 minutes, or until dutch baby cake is puffed on all sides.
  • Make cream sauce: Meanwhile, heat mascarpone cheese and vanilla in a small sauce pan until creamy (you may add a small amount of lemon juice or water to get a more liquid consistency.
  • Garnish and serve: After removing dutch baby from the oven, top with cream, lemon zest, blueberries, and powdered sugar. The pancake can be eaten directly from the skillet, just cut and enjoy!

Notes

  • Leftovers and storage: Store leftover pancake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Store the cream sauce for up to 3 days. We do not recommend freezing.
  • Adapted from: Chrissy Teigen's Dutch Baby Pancake recipe. I reduced the amount of butter and salt, and added cheese and fruit topping.
