Dutch baby — sweet and savory popover pancakes

They say that Dutch sounds like drunk German. Listen to any Dutch person say, "Ik spreek een beetje nederlands" and tell me it doesn't sound like "Ich Sprechen Baconator Lands" 🍔

The tale of the lost Dutchman mine in the western United States in the 19th century was based on an encounter with a German prospector.

That's a pretty cool pan, but I can do exactly the same on my Cast Iron pan with the same or less amount of butter. It's gets really non-stick if you treat it nicely (which is fairly easy if you don't follow stupid myths about soap) and I can use metal spatulas vigorously without fear of damaging the surface (or if I do it just "grows back"). It also costs a fraction of what a specialty non-stick does.

I was really enjoying the video till I saw the fool trying to hold a fork on the sweet pop over. FFS learn to use cutlery correctly and not like an infant. 😢😢

I don't like your opinion.

One of my favorite breakfasts from my childhood 💛

Need.

Try them with Swan's Down flour ...

I made this recipe (savory one) and fell in love. Instead of salami i used thick cherry bacon and omg it slapps. I would suggest smoked salmon with dill and capers (cream cheese and dill to finish it rught when u pull it from the oven) for the peskitarians, pre fried cabbage and shaved brussle sprouts fir those vegetarians, and for the meat lovers out there, steak and chorizo. Im too addicted to this and cant stop making it. Thank you!

cant help with the name origin.. is sure has nothing to do with the Netherlands, never seen that dish. only thing I can think of.. they were cooked in Dutch ovens traditionally, maybe?

I like how insane this guy is.

Less butter = bad.

If your cast iron sticks, it’s not well seasoned

I was wondering why the hell someone would use a nonstick pan for this recipe, and then the sponsership hit.

Dupont knowingly poisoned us with forever chemicals, having their name as part of a selling point for a pan isnt a good thing

From what I remember with the name, the name has to do with it being something often made in a dutch oven. A basic put it in and bake it scenario there

They're unknown in the Netherlands. So the name is really strange.

This sounds like it'll be really good with sourdough starter discard

as a german that ending line was the biggest plot twist of my life

A typical thing in the Netherlands are called Poffertjes. These are tiny little pillows that are similar to this giant Yorkshire pudding looking thing. Maybe because it is a giant Poffertje they call it a Dutch baby? who knows, and, who cares as long as it tastes good!

Pro tip, make this thing a real dutch baby, by pop a nice, perfectly seasoned and roasted placenta in there. Yum! 😋

“dutch babies are kind of bland”
so are pancakes without the butter and syrup! thats why you doctor them up in the same way!

Who cuts like that?

It really made my day to hear you giving measurements in metric, too. I'm more inclined to try recipes when I don't need to convert. Thank you!

Being a Cajun its all CAST IRON it retains the flavors of the food😂

Never heard of GLUG

My Bavarian mother made these all the time as a weekend breakfast growing up. She called it Kaiserschmarrn.

I've not heard Dutch Baby in the US, but I have heard popover, and I shall only use Popover because Popover sounds classy while Dutch Baby is a silly name. The Popover looks delightful though, thanks for sharing!

You keep "Egg's " in the fridge ? why ?

Needs bacon. I like it.

do be careful that if you have a bird do NOT make this in a non-stick pan at those temperatures, as non-stick starts emitting toxic fumes at around 425-500°F. Would recommend cast iron

When I was a young cook I worked for the grandson of the man who brought the dutch baby to Seattle. He called them Dutch Babies because they were smaller versions of German pancakes. The word for German being Deutch. He also invented miracle whip, and the crab Louis. I never met the grandfather as he passed years before. But the grandson had photos from the original restaurant on the Seattle waterfront.

My mom called these oven pancakes

That looks fantastic. A Yorkshire pudding with a fried breakfast in it. Genius.

Dutch babies arent my fav tbh. But these do look really yum haha

one reason cast iron pans are used is because non stick pans are for low-med heat since the coating isn't rated for high heat. I think 425 definitely counts as high heat, so your less butter option is most likely bad. I looked at the pan cause I was honestly interested in a oven safe non-stick, and the pan description pretty much shows its not. not a bad price though

Damn. Now I want a snack.

Nice video. Though, I would recommend anyone to use the blender, if possible. No amount of whisking will break down the egg membranes. You need to chop them up and liquify them.

The what powder now (on the topping eggs)? I didn't catch that and the variations I've hit google with are turning up nothing.
Edit: NEVERMIND I just hit it, Harissa powder. Gotta go make me some!

My son has a milk allergy, any ideas on a milk substitute that could work?

Good video, more people should be aware of the wonders of dutch babies but honestly I feel like you overcomplicated them too much with the corn starch and sugar and everything. The whole thing with warming the eggs and milk and sub in some cornstarch and let it sit for 20 minutes is just overkill. Macarons are some of the easiest desserts ever if you just don't care about them being completely perfect and the same thing is true about dutch babies. Just stop caring about getting the perfect texture and they become so much simpler. Here's how my mom and I make them:

1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
pinch of salt (optional if you use salted butter to coat the pan)


multiply those proportions to fit whatever pan you're using. Here are some examples:
8" round (x2)
8"x8" or 9"x9" (x2-3)
Skillet (x3)
9"x13" (x4)

Preheat your oven and pan to like 400-425 (just experiment and see what works for you, every oven is different)
Stick a good healthy amount of butter in the pan and make sure you coat all the edges and corners to prevent sticking

dump the batter straight in the pan and bake it for about 20 minutes or until the outside edge is a good golden brown color

top with literally anything you'd put on crepes, I usually go for powdered sugar and lime juice but you do you
You could go for pretty much any berries, jams, preserves, or spreads and I'm sure they'd turn out good

Sorry Adam but since I have three of Misen's original Non-Stick Pans I must say that on a scale of 1 thru 10, after owning them for a good while, I'll have to give them a solid ONE. The original Pans had rubber covered handles that were a struggle to keep in place when... well HANDLING them. The smallest 8" Pan was a genuine POS and I literally carried it outside and tossed in my GARBAGE CAN. I have no good things to say about them. I now purchase all my Pots and Pans from their MAIN COMPETITOR which has a very similar name along with a much superior product.

As a UK person I can confirm this is a Yorkshire pudding. Also I can confirm that the UK don't keep their eggs in the fridge because we don't use bleach to clean our eggs... Americans need their heads examined when it comes to food!!!

Every single NON STICK PAN = PLASTIC COATING that will harm your body. Every 6 months there is a new name for the same old same old plastic - Ceramic, Stone, Misen, Dupont, Platinum, and so on.
Don't cook on anything that is plastic. Bits of plastic will enter your body and harm you.
Use stainless steel, carbon steel, tin lined copper, cast iron, enameled iron, enameled aluminum, etc. NO PLASTIC!
I cannot believe you put a plastic pan in the oven, sheesh.

Use a cast iron pan.
Speak slower, so I can relax and not stress out listening. Speak less.
Thank you for no music.

i imagine that the use of "Dutch" in the name of this recipe comes from cooking it in a Dutch oven with coals.

warm up the pan in the over cuz its more efficient? what?
