Dutch Baby with Strawberries and Pistachios

Recipe Description

Isn’t Dutch Baby with Strawberries and Pistachios such a funny name for a recipe! A Dutch baby is like a large fluffy pancake which is a bit like a Yorkshire pudding. Unlike a pancake, Dutch babies are cooked in a hot skillet in the oven. The batter expands and puffs up when it is cooking and it deflates quickly once it is removed from the oven. Dutch babies are so versatile, they can be served for brunch or breakfast, lunch or after dinner as a dessert.

Making the batter is really easy – simply blend milk, cornstarch, flour, eggs, lemon rind and butter together until smooth. You can make it in advance and keep it covered in the refrigerator.

To make Dutch Baby with Strawberries and Pistachios, you will need the following ingredients:
