Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 large eggs, room temperature
3/4 cup whole milk, room temperature
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, slightly cooled, divided
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Topping Ideas
Fried eggs, avocado, and shaved ham (optional)
Smoked salmon, crème fraîche, and sliced spring onions (optional)
Sautéed kale, crispy bacon, and aged cheddar (optional)

Steps:

  • Place a medium ovenproof skillet, preferably cast iron, in center of oven and preheat oven to 450°F. Let skillet heat at least 25 minutes total (prepare your toppings while you wait).
  • Blend eggs in a blender on high speed until very frothy, about 1 minute. With motor running, gradually stream in milk, then 2 Tbsp. butter; blend another 30 seconds. Add flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper and blend just to combine. (This batter doubles well if you want to scale up.)
  • Carefully remove skillet from oven and swirl remaining 1 Tbsp. butter in skillet to coat. Immediately pour batter into skillet (butter will brown quickly, so have batter at the ready to prevent burning). Bake pancake until puffed and brown around edges, 20-25 minutes. It will begin to deflate as soon as it comes out. Top as desired.

SAVORY DUTCH BABY RECIPE BY TASTY



Savory Dutch Baby Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: large eggs, unsalted butter, whole milk, all-purpose flour, kosher salt, fresh thyme leaf, fresh chives, unsalted butter, pancetta, shallot, garlic, medium sweet potato, kosher salt, lacinato kale, shredded smoked gouda cheese, eggs, fresh chive, freshly ground black pepper

Provided by Chris Rosa

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 large eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
¾ cup whole milk, warm
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaf
2 tablespoons fresh chives, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 oz pancetta, diced
1 shallot, medium, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 medium sweet potato, diced
¾ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
½ bunch lacinato kale, stemmed, chopped into 1/2 in strips
¾ cup shredded smoked gouda cheese
2 eggs, sunny-side
fresh chive, thinly sliced
freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Add the eggs, melted butter, milk, flour, and salt to a blender and blend on medium speed until frothy. Stir in the thyme and chives. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a 10-inch (25 cm) cast iron skillet in the oven to warm while it preheats.
  • Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and melt the butter in the pan, swirling to coat evenly. Pour the batter into the hot pan and quickly return to the oven.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the Dutch baby is golden brown and has risen up the sides of the pan considerably.
  • While the Dutch baby bakes, make the filling: Add the pancetta to a cold, large, high-walled skillet. Turn the heat to medium and begin rendering the fat from the pancetta, stirring occasionally, 6-8 minutes. When the pancetta is crisp, remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat behind.
  • Add the shallot to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until beginning to soften. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the sweet potato to the pan and season with ½ teaspoon of salt. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato is golden brown and tender.
  • Add the kale and cook for 1-2 minutes, until just wilted. Season with the remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt, plus more to taste. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
  • Assemble the Dutch baby. Once the Dutch baby is finished baking, remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle all over with the shredded Gouda. Top with the sweet potato and kale hash, reserved pancetta, and sunny-side up eggs. Garnish with chives and pepper.
  • Enjoy!

DUTCH BABY



Dutch Baby image

I've had these a lot at B&B's, probably because they're delicious and dependable if the right technique is used. This dish is puffy around the outside and flat in the center offering the perfect nest for sliced fresh fruit. It's airy, light and makes a beautiful presentation. The batter can be made up to a day ahead and refrigerated.

SAVORY DUTCH BABY



Savory Dutch Baby image

I know most people know Dutch Babies as a sweet breakfast food- but not in my family! Sausage and cheese make this breakfast classic more hearty.

Provided by SuperSpike

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 eggs
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 cup cheese, shredded (use a good melting type like cheddar or Jack)
1 cup cooked sausage (you can use crumbly sausage or even better, smoked sausage cut into bite sized pieces)
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Put margarine and sausage into the baking dish and place in the oven to heat about 5 minutes before you add the batter. Keep a close eye on it because it will burn if you let it.
  • Blend eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a blender or with a mixer. Add the flour 1/4c at a time until just incorporated evenly (don't overmix otherwise you'll activate the gluten in the flour and have a thick dutch baby rather than a fluffy one).
  • Add batter immediately after it's ready to hot baking dish.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the batter and bake for 20-25 minutes, until puffy and Golden brown.
  • Let it cool a few minutes before cutting- it will deflate during this period.
  • Enjoy!
  • Note: this is my family recipe, and it was is told to me as a ratio- 1/4 milk & flour for every egg- feel free to go up or down a size on your baking dish just adjusting according to the ratio!

Tips:

  • Make sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature before starting your Dutch baby. This will help ensure that it cooks evenly and doesn't burn.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven to make your Dutch baby. This will help prevent it from burning and will also help it cook evenly.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the Dutch baby tough.
  • Add your favorite toppings to your Dutch baby before baking. This could include cheese, vegetables, herbs, or meat.
  • Serve your Dutch baby immediately after it is done baking. This is when it will be the most delicious and fluffy.

Conclusion:

The Dutch baby is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With the right ingredients and a little bit of practice, you can make a perfect Dutch baby every time.
