Mini Dutch Baby Pancakes

I've been wanting to attempt to make a Dutch baby (also known as a German pancake) for awhile now...but they are traditionally made in a cast iron skillet and I don't have one. But I came across this recipe on Pinterest and had to try it out! Traditionally they are served dusted with confectioners sugar, but you can also serve with maple syrup, Nutella, fresh fruit or a fruit compote. You can also make up the batter the night before, then place in a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, to make it even easier on yourself in the morning.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine the first 2 tbsp. butter, eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla and salt in a blender and mix well, until smooth and frothy.
- 2
Leave the batter in the blender and let it rest for at least 20 minutes. This gives the flour time to absorb the liquid. The texture and taste will be even better after it is given time to rest (or so I've read).
- 3
Place a 12 cup standard sized muffin tin (or 2 of the 6 cup muffin tins) into the oven. Preheat the oven to 425°F, with the muffin tins in the oven while it heats.
- 4
Once the oven is pre-heated, melt the additional 2 tbsp. of butter. Carefully remove the hot muffin tins from the oven (at this point I would recommend spraying the muffin tins with non-stick spray. I didn't the first time I tried this recipe and my Dutch babies stuck badly to the pan, even with the butter). Quickly brush the bottoms and sides of each cup with the melted butter, using a pastry brush.
- 5
Pour the batter into the hot, buttered muffin tins, filling to the halfway point.
- 6
Place muffin tins back in the oven and bake 7 minutes. Rotate the pan and bake an additional 7 minutes or until golden in color and puffy. Remove from oven. The pancakes will quickly deflate in the centers.
- 7
Dust with the confectioners sugar and then serve immediately, either as is or with preferred toppings.

I always try to fix breakfast that doesn't take much time. When my 18 months old is starving, he doesn't look so cute anymore 😄. I love making this pancake because it's quick, easy and delicious. I have tried with many kind of fruit, such as apple, banana, pear and peach, either one is good. I usually serve the pancake with maple syrup, but you can always serve with whipped cream or dusting with powdered sugar. Pawon Indo Bule -
