Fluffy Dutch Baby with Caramelized Apples and Cinnamon Sugar
This recipe is for a fluffy Dutch baby with caramelized apples and cinnamon sugar. The Dutch baby is made with eggs, flour, milk, salt, and cinnamon, and baked in a cast iron skillet until puffed up and golden brown. The caramelized apples are made with sliced apples, brown sugar, nutmeg, and vanilla extract, and served on top of the Dutch baby with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 2 medium apples peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet in the oven to heat up.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, flour, milk, salt, and cinnamon until smooth.
- Once the skillet is hot, add the butter and let it melt completely. Swirl the skillet to coat the bottom and sides with the melted butter.
- Pour the batter into the skillet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are puffed up and golden brown.
- While the Dutch baby is baking, prepare the caramelized apples. In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced apples, brown sugar, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized, about 10-12 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
- Once the Dutch baby is done, remove it from the oven and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top. Serve immediately with the caramelized apples on top.
