There are so many recipes for dutch baby pancakes but this one, which was inspired by a New York Times recipe, is so easy and delicious and has become a family favorite.
A dutch baby pancake is a hybrid between a crepe, pancake and popover that is made in a large cast iron skillet in the oven. We were intimidated to try it but once we realized how easy and delicious they are, we quickly added dutch baby pancakes to our weekend brunch rotation! This version tastes like a cross between a pancake and french toast – yum!
