recipe Inspiration <\/h3>\n

\t\tWhen I was a kid, my mom and grandmother would often take me to The Original Pancake house here in Chicago. I loved (and still do) my good old-fashioned buttermilk pancakes, but every once in a while, my grandmother would order a Dutch baby pancake. It was an elusive treat at the time because it took what felt like forever in childhood years for it to come to the table. Despite this, I was always in awe of the big cast iron skillet, filled with this puffy dough, piled high with apples and cinnamon.\u00a0When I got older, I decided to randomly research Dutch Baby recipes on my own. If I had known how easy they were to make, I probably would’ve made them way earlier in life! This recipe is adapted from The Kitchn. You can find their recipe here<\/a>, with a few seasoning modifications of my own.\t\t<\/p>\n

Chef’s Notes <\/h3>\n

\t\tThe beauty of a dutch baby, is that after it rises in the oven, the whole dish “collapses” after baking and leaves a bowl-like well in the center of your pancake. This makes it the perfect vehicle for toppings; like fresh berries, fried cinnamon apples, peach cobbler filling or even cheese, charcuterie and herbs. My favorite combinations include:\u00a0<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Blueberries and Peaches<\/li>\n
  • Apple Pie filling<\/li>\n
  • Peach cobbler topping (you can get my recipe, here)<\/li>\n
  • Prosciutto and burrata with basil<\/li>\n
  • Cheddar and chicken sausage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The versatility are endless. The recipe below feeds about 2-3 people, but you can double it for a larger group. I would size up on your cast iron skillet as well, if you’re going to double the ingredients. If you try this recipe, put your own spin on it and tag me on social using, @beyondafoodie!
