cinnamon-sugar + banana dutch baby

uhm.. yum. is it just me or does weekend breakfast always taste better than weekday breakfast? even if I make the exact same thing – if it’s saturday or sunday it’s just better like the weekend is the missing ingredient. I whipped up this dutch baby before anyone woke up on saturday morning – it was so peaceful (other than the minute of blending…) + getting to enjoy a slice in silence with a warm cup of coffee was a mini miracle.

I love that this dish is so versatile! it’s a delicious treat for breakfast – it’s pretty so you can totally serve it to guests – it’s sweet and topped with nutella or icecream (or both!) could totally be a dessert + obviously it’s kid approved!

- 3 whole eggs
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup ap flour
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 1 banana
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- heat oven to 425 + melt butter in a medium non-stick skillet and set it aside. (I would have used my cast iron but it was much too big for this). meanwhile, add the eggs, flour, brown sugar, vanilla + salt to a blender and blend for about a minute until frothy/well combined. mix the cinnamon + sugar together and slice the banana into circles. pour the batter over the melted butter – top it evenly with the banana slices + cinnamon-sugar mixture. pop into the oven for about 20 minutes until it turns golden + puffs up. serve with maple syrup/powdered sugar/nutella etc.

what’s your favorite addition to a dutch baby?

I’m thinking next time we’ll try some blueberries and/or some kind of berry mixture!
