Equipment
Ingredients
Dutch Baby
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- ½ cup whole milk room temperature (or 2%)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons salted butter
- butter, powdered sugar and maple syrup optional garnishes
Spiced Cranberries
- 12 ounces cranberries fresh or frozen
- ¼ cup orange juice
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon cloves
- ⅛ teaspoon allspice
- ⅛ teaspoon ginger
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Whipped Cream
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 425° F.
- Using a blender or electric hand mixer, combine the eggs, flour, milk, vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until very smooth and bubbly, about 1 minute.
- Melt the butter in a 10-12 inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot and sizzling all over, about 2 minutes. Immediately add the dutch baby batter to the skillet and place in the oven. Bake for 18-20 minutes until the pancake is puffed and golden. Do not open the oven during this time or the dutch baby could deflate.
- While the dutch baby bakes, make the spiced cranberries. Add all the spiced cranberry ingredients to a medium pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes until the cranberries soften and pop, creating a sauce.
- To make the whipped cream, use an electric hand mixer or stand mixer to combine the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Once the dutch baby comes out of the oven, top with a few pats of butter and dust with powdered sugar. Finish with spiced cranberries, whipped cream and maple syrup.
