Description

Light and airy mini Dutch baby pancakes with crisp golden edges and soft custardy centers, perfect for brunch or a cozy breakfast


Ingredients

  • Large Eggs: 4 large, room temperature
  • Whole Milk: 1 cup, room temperature
  • All-Purpose Flour: 1 cup
  • Granulated Sugar: 2 tablespoons
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon
  • Salt: 1/4 teaspoon
  • Unsalted Butter: 4 tablespoons, melted and divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the muffin tin inside with 1 teaspoon of butter in each cup so it melts and heats up
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a blender, combine eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Blend until completely smooth
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven once the butter is melted and bubbly
  4. Assemble the Dish: Pour the batter evenly into each muffin cup, filling about three quarters full
  5. Cook to Perfection: Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the pancakes are puffed and golden brown around the edges
  6. Finishing Touches: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. They will gently deflate, which is completely normal
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm with powdered sugar, fresh berries, maple syrup, or a squeeze of lemon juice

Notes

  • Make sure the pan is hot before adding batter for maximum rise
  • Do not open the oven door while baking
  • Measure flour by spooning and leveling for accuracy
  • Serve immediately for the best texture
