Ingredients

Dutch Baby

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 1/2 cup warm milk (110F)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar (or coconut sugar)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if using frozen, do not thaw)

Lemon Curd

  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
  • 3 tablespoons butter, softened
  • Powdered sugar for serving, optional

Instructions

Dutch Baby

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Place 2 tablespoons butter in a 9-in cast iron skillet and place skillet in oven to heat for 5 minutes until skillet is hot and butter is melted. Grip the handle of skillet with a hot pad and gently swirl to coat butter on all the sides.
  • Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in microwave or on stovetop. In a medium bowl, whisk melted butter, milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Whisk in flour, and salt until a smooth batter forms.
  • Remove skillet from oven, carefully pour batter into skillet, and sprinkle with blueberries. Place skillet back in oven and bake dutch baby at 400F 20-25 minutes until puffed up and golden brown.

Lemon Curd

  • While the dutch baby bakes, make the lemon curd. In the bottom pot of a double-boiler, bring a few inches of water to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low to keep water at a simmer.
  • Whisk egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, and zest into the top bowl of double boiler and place on top of the pot of simmering water.
  • Whisk lemon curd frequently over medium-low heat until curd becomes smooth and thickened, about 8-10 minutes. Remove curd from heat and immediately add softened butter, 1 tablespoon at a time whisking well after each addition.
  • Serve dutch baby warm with lemon curd drizzled on top and powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy!
