RECIPE OF THE WEEK: DUTCH BABY
After Last week’s vegetarian lasagna (which was delicious) we thought we’d make a dessert. Dutch Babies are kind of a cross between a pancake, crepe and popover and can also be eaten just for breakfast.
You will need an oven safe pan for this.
Regular Ingredients: Vegan ingredients:
½ cup of flour 1 ½ tbsp ground flax seeds
½ cup of milk 4 tbsp water
2 large eggs 4.5 tbsp aquafaba
2 tbsp of sugar ¾ cup flour
½ tsp vanilla ¾ cup plant milk
½ tsp salt 1tbsp sugar
2 tbsp unsalted butter 1 tsp vanilla
¾ cup flour
How to make:
If you are making the vegan Dutch baby combine the ground flax seed and the 4 tbsp of water and mix to make the vegan eggs.
From here the directions are the same for both the regular and vegan recipes. Preheat your oven to 425 and put your oven safe pan in while it is preheating.
Put all your ingredients except for the butter into a blender and blend until the batter is smooth, crape down the sides as needed. Let the batter sit for at least 20 minutes. When the oven is preheated and the batter is ready, take the pan out and melt the butter in it making sure to cover the whole pan. Then put the batter in the pan, make sure that it covers the whole pan evenly and cook for 20-25 minutes.
When it’s done, serve with whatever toppings you like! Powdered sugar, syrup, ice cream or barriers, the toppings are endless!
