Dutch Baby
Pancakes for a weekend breakfast? The griddle, 4 at a time, keep them warm, etc, etc. How about making one big puffy pancake and just breaking off one serving at a time? It’s already been invented—and it’s called a Dutch Baby. Ready in about a half hour—just long enough to make the coffee and fix up some bacon or sausage. The best part is—it bakes in the oven, and when it’s done, breakfast is done.
