Cake for breakfast?! Yes please.
These days, when I’m making pancakes on a Saturday morning, I’m baking them not flipping them.

Dutch Baby, also known as a Dutch Puff, is a sweet popover. These are ideal when you are in the mood for pancakes but don’t feel like standing at the stove forever flipping them. Just whip up the simple batter, then let the oven do the work.

Adjust the recipe to satisfy your sweet tooth by increasing the amount of sugar in the batter, or powder it up with confectioner sugar, or drizzle on some home made syrup.
