Chocolate Dutch Baby

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour or white whole wheat flour(all purpose flour will work too)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  • Place a 9"-10" cast iron skillet in the oven and preheat to 425 degrees.  Or prepare a pie dish by buttering with the 2 tablespoons of butter and preheating in the oven.
  • To prepare the batter, either place all ingredients except the butter into a blender and just blend until mixed.   Or whisk everything together, being sure to sift the cocoa powder so that there are no lumps.  Once well mixed and the oven is hot add the butter to the hot cast iron skillet.  Once melted, pour the batter in and place into the oven. 
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until the dutch baby is puffed up around the edges and completely set in the middle. When done, remove from the oven and cool a couple minutes. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with fresh fruit or a strawberry sauce.
