Equipment

  • Food processor
  • Cast iron skillet
  • Sauté pan
  • Spatula
  • Whisk optional
  • Mixing Bowl optional

Ingredients
 
 

Dutch baby

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup whole milk room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 eggs room temperature

Bananas Foster

  • 4 tablespoons butter unsalted, cut into pieces
  • ¼ cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 bananas sliced into ½ inch thick rounds
  • 3 tablespoons dark rum

Instructions
 

Making the Dutch baby

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F, 220°C, or gas mark 7 with the cast iron skillet inside.
  • In a food processor or blender add the eggs, milk, flour, vanilla, salt, and sugar and blend until batter is evenly smooth.
  • Once the oven is hot remove the cast iron skillet and add the butter. Make sure all of the butter has melted. Immediately pour the batter into the skillet and place back into the oven to bake for 15 minutes or until the sides have started turning dark brown.

Making the bananas foster

  • While the Dutch baby is cooking in a sauce pan over medium high heat, heat the butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Once the butter has melted add the bananas and cook for 1-2 minutes until they start to soften.
  • Add the vanilla and rum and with a long match or lighter, ignite the liquid. The flames will be high so stand back until they die down.
  • Remove from the heat and set aside.

Assembly

  • Remove the Dutch baby from the oven, pour the bananas foster on top and serve immediately. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
