Dutch Baby Recipe!

Susan is back with a recipe I have never even heard of!  Here we go:

This morning I woke up and decided to spend a “Me” day watching movies and reading magazines after the last couple of very busy weeks.  But, a “me” day also includes cooking something fun and since I woke up hungry, I decided to make something I hadn’t eaten in a good while……a Dutch Baby, smothered in maple syrup.  Yum!

Also, my sister-in-law gave me a little notebook to keep in the kitchen to write down recipes I come up with.  With the Dutch Baby, I started with a known recipe but modified it to fit my supplies.  I tried to make one that was just big enough for me and then it became my first entry into my quaint little book.  Double it for two people, and it will be a little thicker.  Or, really, this could easily be enough for two, particularly if you had something to go with it.

Here is my lazy day breakfast.

DUTCH BABY

1/4 cup Eggbeaters (egg whites)
1 egg
1/4 cup (2 oz.) milk
1 oz buttermilk
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 tsp vanilla
pinch of salt

Preheat the oven to 415 degrees.  Melt the butter in an iron skillet.  Mix the rest of the ingredients in a bowl and pour over the melted butter.  Cook in the skillet for about 15 minutes (I forgot to time it) or until it bubbles up and is a little brown on top. 

This little baby is a little thin, like a crepe.  Pour Log Cabin Syrup or honey on top and enjoy!

Hi, my name is Susan and Permanent Posies (Creative Chaos) is my blog and my subject matter is…well, that depends on the day and the mood. But, for the most part, I love cooking, watching the Food Network, reading cookbooks and, of course, eating. I am also an artist and spend time each week in my studio (bedroom) oil painting. I am a mother of four and a grandmother to 5 and that, along with my husband and 2 dogs, take up my most of my time. I am a side-tracked Home Executive and I had the privilege of being a stay –at-home mom so, you might say that my passion is the home and making a haven for those I love.
