I found a recipe for pannekoekens (Dutch pancakes baked in the oven). I made it the other night and I would love to share it with you C&B'ers.
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature • 3 large eggs • 3/4 cup whole milk • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled) • 1/4 teaspoon salt • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract • 1/4 cup sugar • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 425°. In a medium cast-iron or oven proof nonstick skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat; set aside.
In a blender, combine eggs, milk, flour, salt, vanilla and 1/4 cup sugar. Blend until foamy, about 1 minute. Pour batter into skillet; bake until pancake is puffed and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
Working quickly, dot pancake with 1 tablespoon butter, and sprinkle with lemon juice and powdered sugar. Slice into wedges, and serve immediately.
I used to eat these at a restaurant in Minneapolis. They added things like apples, bacon, etc to them (before baking). I imagine one could do the same with this basic recipe.

1. A friend shared a recipe with me for |

Dutch Baby pancakes which appear to be the same thing. We only make them once in a great while but they sure are delicious! :9 Including pics: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=236&topic_id=47694

2. It is quite similar to Yorkshire pudding (except sugar & vanilla) |
|
...which I sometimes make to have with butter & jam for breakfast. Sometimes I make it with parmasan.

and while the pancake was baking, I'd cook chopped apples, sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice and a pinch of salt on top of the stove.
I'd put the apple filling down the center of the pancake, fold it over, dust it with powdered sugar and serve.
It was my favorite dessert for a dinner party.
There is no way to reheat it, alas, but there were generally no leftovers.

5. yes, we call those dutch babies, too |

I forget to make them, so thanks for the reminder! We love them.
I often use pyrex pie plates for them.

6. OOOH - pyrex pie plates might be just the thing. |
|
I did it in my 10 inch cast iron skillet, but I think it would be kind of fun to do individual sized ones, so maybe I can find some larger pyrex ramiken type dishes to do them in.

9. I love those in any color! |

But I'd a little ascared to do the dutch babies in them. I wouldn't know how much of the batter to put in each without it overflowing when they rise up in the oven. :scared:

Those babies in the Minneapolis restaurant would really volume upwards! The waitress would run the dish out to the table yelling Pannekoeken, Pannekoeken and other servers would freeze in their tracks! Because you were guanteed to get a very fluffy, high Pannekoeken and once it hit the table -- it fell. But - oh so tasty!
Gosh, what was that restaurant called anyway. CRS, lol.

14. Baby 6" individual pans. |
|
This person makes them in 6" individual: http://orangette.blogspot.com/2005/02/9-am-sunday-butter-and-babies.html Pans (two to a recipe): http://www.webstaurantstore.com/6-5-cast-iron-fajita-sized-skillet/407RSK6.htmlAnother woman makes them in small pie pans, like pot-pie pans (four to a recipe). I wouldn't worry too much about them overflowing, if they're no more than 1/2 full. They're kinda like popovers... the outside part cooks and crawls up the sides. They'd be cute in the 6" cast iron pans.
