Dutch Babies Recipe Gluten Free

GLUTEN-FREE DUTCH BABY (GERMAN PANCAKE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the butter in a 9X13-inch baking dish and put the pan in the oven while it preheats (keep an eye on the dish so the butter doesn't burn; take it out when the butter is melted).
• Place all the ingredients in a blender. Blend until just combined and smooth. Don't over-blend or the pancake will be tough.
• Take the pan out of the oven and pour the batter into (Tip: When pouring the batter into the pan, swirl the batter in a figure-8 pattern: This helps give the German pancake peaks and valleys and a delicious texture.)
• Bake for 20-25 minutes until the pancake is puffy and lightly browned on the bottom and edges.
• Serve immediately with butter syrup (recipe below), maple syrup, powdered sugar, berries or jam. Enjoy!

FLUFFY GLUTEN FREE DUTCH BABY

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a 9-inch cast iron skillet or heavy-bottom 9-inch cake pan, place the butter.
• Place the pan with the butter in it in the preheated oven just until the butter is melted, while you make the batter.
• In a blender, place the milk, eggs, flour blend and salt, and blend just until smooth. You do not need a high-speed blender for this task. The batter will be thin.
• Remove the hot pan with the melted butter from the oven, and pour off excess butter, leaving just a coating on the pan.
• Working quickly, pour the batter into the hot pan and return to the oven. Bake for 12 minutes.
• Rotate the pan 180° and continue to bake until the pancake is puffed and golden brown all over (about another 5 minutes). Remove from the oven.
• The pancake should release easily from the pan. If it seems stuck on any sides, loosen it with a knife and slide it out of the pan onto a wire rack. This will ensure that the bottom of the pancake doesn't become soggy as it cools.
• Allow to cool briefly before slicing into wedges and serving warm garnished with fruit, a light dusting of confectioners' sugar and maybe a dollop of whipped cream (in the winter, I like to serve it with citrus, in the summer with berries).
• Any leftover wedges can be stored at room temperature for about 4 hours, or even wrapped tightly and stored in the refrigerator for at least 1 day.
• Reheat gently in the microwave before serving. This recipe can be doubled easily, and baked in two batches.

Steps:

• Place butter in a 9x13 glass or nonstick pan and place in oven. Let the butter melt while the oven is preheating to 450 degrees.
• Take pan out of oven when butter is melted and tilt pan so the butter coats the bottom of the pan.
• Mix the rest of ingredients in a blender or mixer.
• Pour mixture in hot buttered pan and bake for 9-11 minutes till top looks firm and not wet looking or when edges just start to brown. You don't want the edges to be too brown.
• Enjoy with powdered sugar, fruit and cool whip, or syrup.
