Dutch Babies
This Dutch baby recipe is from my great-grandmother. Warm Dutch babies are great on a cold morning — they're light, yet very filling. I love to eat them. Serve with warm maple syrup and lemon wedges.
Ingredients
-
2 large eggs
-
½ cup milk
-
½ cup sifted all-purpose flour
-
1 pinch ground nutmeg
-
1 pinch salt

2 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar for dusting
Description
-
Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet into the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).

Whisk eggs in a medium bowl until light. Whisk in milk, then gradually whisk in flour, nutmeg, and salt.

Remove the skillet from the oven and reduce the heat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place butter into the hot skillet and swirl to melt over the bottom and sides.

Pour batter into the skillet and return to the oven.
