Ever Had A Dutch Baby?

OK, if you didn't know this already, a Dutch Baby is a breakfast dish. It's a batter-based delicacy that's cooked in a Dutch Oven or a cast iron skillet. Below you see two in the oven, one in a skillet and one in a Dutch Oven. It starts out as batter in the bottom and rises to heights above the container while cooking. When done, it is golden brown on the outside and soft and light on the inside, much like a popover. Typically you would squeeze some fresh lemon over it and dust it wish powdered sugar (...or bury it in powdered sugar!)


The next photo shows it on the counter being served.



The last photo was taken with the kitchen "sky cam" and shows our friends having the Dutch Baby for breakfast. Deb has mastered the creation of this breakfast treat, and we look forward to our special weekend breakfast.

Now if a certain friend in Utah could just come over and share breakfast and a few days with us...
