Dutch baby pancake recipe

Dutch baby pancake

Like a sweet Yorkshire pudding, this impressive pancake is oven cooked, creating a bowl you can fill with any manner of delicious toppings. Try drizzling salted caramel sauce over sliced banana and whipped cream, add a dollop of vanilla yogurt with fresh berries, or keep it simple with a dusting of sugar and a squeeze of lemon.

    Method

    1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C/fan 180°C. Put a 20cm ovenproof frying pan in the oven to heat up. Sieve the flour and sugar into a large bowl. Whisk in the milk, eggs and vanilla, then set aside.
    2. When the oven and pan are up to temperature, remove the pan from the oven, add the butter and swirl until melted. Pour the mixture over the butter and return to the oven. Bake for 18-20 mins until puffed up and cooked through.
    3. Add your preferred topping. For the banoffee option, pile the sliced bananas on top and drizzle over the caramel sauce. Serve with extra cream (whipped or pouring). For the berry filling, top with the berries and dollops of vanilla yogurt, then add a dusting of icing sugar. Or opt for a simple topping of lemon juice, a sprinkling of caster sugar and cream.
    4. To serve, cut into quarters and divide among bowls.
