Savory Sausage Dutch Baby Recipe: A Delicious Twist on a Classic Dish
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.25 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 0.25 cup fresh chives, chopped
- 1 Prise sour cream (optional)
- 1 Prise Greek yogurt (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a cast-iron skillet (10-12 inches) in the oven to heat up as well.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined and frothy.
- Gradually add in the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Mix until smooth and no lumps remain.
- Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling it around to coat the bottom and sides of the skillet.
- Pour the batter into the hot skillet with the melted butter, then evenly distribute the crumbled sausage and shredded cheese on top of the batter.
- Return the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the Dutch baby is puffed and golden brown.
- Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. The Dutch baby will deflate slightly as it cools.
- Garnish with fresh chives and serve hot. You can add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt on top for extra flavor.
💡 Chef's Notes
Slice the Dutch baby into wedges and serve directly from the skillet for a rustic look. Add a sprinkle of additional chives on top for a pop of color.
