Savory Bacon Dutch Baby Recipes

SAVORY DUTCH BABY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place an oven-proof 10-inch skillet in the oven. Cast iron or non-stick work best.
• Add eggs and milk to a blender. Blend until smooth. Add flour and salt. Blend on high until smooth, about 1 minute. Add chives. Pulse once to combine. Let the batter rest while you prep the rest of the ingredients and the oven comes to temperature.
• When the oven preheats, remove the pan from the oven and add the butter. Swirl and then sprinkle all but 1/4 cup each of the asparagus and Canadian Bacon on the bottom of the pan. Pour the batter on top. Sprinkle the middle with cheese leaving a 1-inch border around the sides. Sprinkle the remaining asparagus and Canadian bacon on top of the cheese. Place in the oven and set the timer for 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes, reduce the heat to 375 degrees and cook another 10-15 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
• Garnish with extra chives.

SAVORY DUTCH BABY WITH FENNEL, CELERY, BACON, LEMON, AND HONEY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425° with a medium cast-iron pan on the middle rack.
• Pulse the parsley leaves with the Braun MultiQuick 7 Hand Blender with the MQ20BK chopper attachment. Set chopped parsley aside.
• Melt 3 tablespoons butter and let cool. Combine eggs, milk, flour, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, and the melted butter in a large bowl. Using an immersion hand blender such as the Braun MultiQuick 7 Hand Blender, mix ingredients until frothy and smooth.
• Carefully remove the hot cast-iron pan from the oven and melt the remaining tablespoon butter in the pan. Pour the batter into the pan and scatter the chopped parsley over the top. Bake in the oven until the pancake is puffed and golden brown, about 20 to 22 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss fennel, celery, olive oil, lemon juice, and bacon in a medium bowl, season with salt and pepper. Add this mixture on top of the pancake, drizzle with honey, and serve with lemon wedges. Enjoy immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Put margarine and sausage into the baking dish and place in the oven to heat about 5 minutes before you add the batter. Keep a close eye on it because it will burn if you let it.
• Blend eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a blender or with a mixer. Add the flour 1/4c at a time until just incorporated evenly (don't overmix otherwise you'll activate the gluten in the flour and have a thick dutch baby rather than a fluffy one).
• Add batter immediately after it's ready to hot baking dish.
• Sprinkle cheese over the batter and bake for 20-25 minutes, until puffy and Golden brown.
• Let it cool a few minutes before cutting- it will deflate during this period.
• Enjoy!
• Note: this is my family recipe, and it was is told to me as a ratio- 1/4 milk & flour for every egg- feel free to go up or down a size on your baking dish just adjusting according to the ratio!
