Title: I can't remember if I posted this before or not, dutch babies?
Post by: monster2 on April 10, 2017, 10:53:56 PM: Am I going to be impressed or are they mainly a vehicle for toppings?

Post by: Run Amok on April 10, 2017, 11:39:40 PM: I love them. Looooove them. But this is homey comfort breakfast made with mama's love , in this house. Not sure if that translates. But people always rave when I make them.

Post by: witchypoo on April 11, 2017, 10:08:00 AM: mr. 'poo makes them about once a month. they're delicious.

Post by: nadra24 on April 11, 2017, 10:36:43 AM: We call them german pancakes at our house and I make them about once a week. I usually just top them with maple syrup, but I also like powdered sugar with a squeeze of lemon juice or applesauce as toppings. I rarely do fruit toppings. They're so good and so easy that they are in the rotation pretty heavily.

Ooh, now I recognize them!

Nadra, I call crepes German pancakes. They were a grandma - made favorite. I was about 30 when I realized we were fancy.

Did i read it here? Pancakes are one of the oldest dishes in human history. Cavemen made pancakes. Archaeologists found stone bottles of Mrs. Butterworth at Chauvet cave! ;)

Post by: Run Amok on April 12, 2017, 10:56:29 AM: definitely try plain first with powdered sugar & lemon. Then try other stuff but I think you have to know what the traditional dish is first.
Title: Re: I can't remember if I posted this before or not, dutch babies?
Post by: witchypoo on April 12, 2017, 01:01:13 PM: mr. 'poo makes them plain and serves them with cooked apple or currant jam (his inner ~~german~~ ~~swede~~ german) demands it. but they are nice with lemon.

Post by: Dagstag v 2.0 on April 12, 2017, 01:07:30 PM: I would make this, but I am lazy. Therefore I will send SO a recipe for this and say MMMM, this would make a great weekend breakfast! Then he will make it for me.

Post by: witchypoo on April 12, 2017, 02:41:13 PM: just fyi, it's the same batter one would use for ebelskiver (which i make once in a blue moon). those are fun. but you'll need a special pan.
Title: Re: I can't remember if I posted this before or not, dutch babies?
Post by: ihop on April 13, 2017, 09:41:04 AM: Yummy with lemon and powered sugar. My dad used to make a topping for them that had almonds and berries in the food processor - I am sure there were other ingredients too.

And waffles reign supreme in this house too. DH makes them a few times a week.

Post by: monster2 on April 16, 2017, 12:03:48 PM: It came out pretty impressive looking, I made banana fosters sauce to go with, we ate it but I am still hungry. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170416/9d11f8ec16d466b62ae4afa1f9e0148a.jpg)

Post by: teetime on April 18, 2017, 10:31:33 AM: I am thinking these might come out pretty well, even if using gluten free flour? (They look pretty eggy and don't call for that much flour, right?)
Title: Re: I can't remember if I posted this before or not, dutch babies?
Post by: Run Amok on April 18, 2017, 11:03:36 AM: Google seems to suggest is possible, yes.

Post by: nadra24 on April 18, 2017, 11:04:29 AM: I've made them with GF flour and the texture is not exactly the same but they still work pretty well. If I'm remembering correctly they don't puff up as much as with white flour, but still pretty tasty. My recipe is super easy to cut in half and cook in an 8x8 glass dish, so if you try it out and it doesn't work it's not like you're out a lot of ingredients. (For the full recipe using 6 eggs, I cook it in a 9x13 dish)

Heat oven to 425. While oven is heating, put 8x8 glass dish in oven to preheat. Melt 3-4 Tb butter in hot baking dish.

Meanwhile, blend together the following:
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup flour (or GF baking mix)
3 eggs
1/4 tsp salt

Pour batter into hot baking dish. Bake 18-20 minutes until puffy.

Post by: caribougrrl on April 20, 2017, 07:36:58 AM: I usually make a gingery-peppery apple sauce to serve with them. But they are also surprisingly (not-surprisingly) good with red-eye gravy...

On the weekend agenda! Quick questions ... is 3-4 Ts butter for the full or half recipe? Do you use salted butter? (Otherwise I might up that salt from 1/4 tsp.)

I meant to type 2-3 Tb for the half recipe. The full recipe calls for 6 Tb which is delicious, but I usually only use 4 Tb because I buy half sticks of butter most of the time. I use salted butter. For the half recipe, I'd start with 3 Tb and decrease next time if you think it's too much butter.

Me too, actually! Get to the point!

(And I'd meant to post this in RG's brunch thread. Oops.)
