This simple breakfast recipe is quick and easy yet tastes gourmet - my favorite kind of recipe! A dutch baby, or German pancake, is a bit of a blend between pancakes and crepes, and like both of those delicious dishes, doesn’t disappoint, offering a myriad of sweet and savory taste combinations - apple and cinnamon, peaches broiled in honey, pear & thyme, or lemon, lavender and blackberry, to name just a few. So for breakfast this week (or for dessert, because yes, I eat cake for breakfast so why not pancakes for dessert?) might I suggest filling your kitchen with the relaxing fresh scents of lemon, lavender and pancakes to help start the morning off right?

Equipment
- 1 medium sized bowl
- (1) 10 in. iron skillet
- Food processor or blender
Ingredients
Pancake Batter
- 3 Tablespoons butter, melted
- 3 eggs, room temp
- 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream, room temp
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 cup flour plus 2 Tablesoppons
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- blackberries (optional)
Lavender Icing
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon lavender infused simple syrup (or Monin’s Lavender Syrup)
Instructions
- Preheat the iron cast skillet in an oven set at 400 degrees F for 8-10 minutes.
- While it’s heating, in a blender, food processor or NutriBullet, combine the eggs, sugar, flour, vanilla, heavy whipping cream, salt, and 1 Tablespoon of butter, blending for ~ 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides to ensure ingredients are well incorporated.
- Remove the skillet from the oven, and pour the remaining 2 Tablespoons of butter into the pan, swirling to cover the pan’s bottom and sides (watch out for butter splatter!)
- Gently pour your batter directly into the center of the skillet, and then return the skillet to the oven.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes (it will puff in the oven before deflating slightly).
- Top with powdered sugar, fruit, syrup or icing. For this bake, I added blackberries, powdered sugar and lavender icing.
