Sourdough Dutch Baby (German Skillet Pancake)

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

200 g Sourdough Starter (or sourdough starter discard)

60 g Butter (melted - only use half in the batter)

120 g Milk (whole milk is best)

4 Eggs (large eggs, at least 60g each)

3 g Salt (just a pinch)

5 g Vanilla Extract

1/4 tsp Cinnamon (optional)

Directions

Preheat your oven to 240C (465F) and place a clean cast iron skillet inside to heat up.

In a large mixing bowl add the sourdough starter, half the butter, milk, eggs, salt, vanilla extract and cinnamon and whisk until it forms a thin batter. It should be thinner than pancake batter (more like a popover batter).

Allow the batter to sit on the counter until the cast iron skillet is at temperature.

When the cast iron skillet is ready, carefully remove it from the oven and allow the half of the melted butter that is left to sizzle all around the pan.

Pour the Dutch Baby pancake batter into the skillet and return it to the hot oven as soon as you can.

Bake the Sourdough Dutch Baby pancake for around 15 to 20 minutes (depending on the size of your skillet).

Once it's puffed and golden, remove it from the oven. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with your favorite toppings.
