Dutch Baby Pancakes

Dutch Baby Pancakes look hella cool and we started making it after getting Chrissy Teigen’s Cravings cookbook a few years ago. A Dutch baby pancake, sometimes called a German pancake, is a large, fluffy pancake that is baked in the oven.

Over the years, I did a few minor tweaks, but the girls and I enjoy the buttery, puffy goodness any time we make it. I love how it puffs up and turns golden brown when baked in a high-heat oven and love how it tastes crispy and fluffy at the same time.

The girls and I love adding our favorite toppings and enjoying it with other breakfast items. The toppings are super customizable. I am even thinking of making a savory version soon as well! If you’re looking for breakfast ideas, you gotta make this dish!
