Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk (whole or 2%)
- 4 Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- optional Powdered sugar (for garnish)
- optional Fruit (e.g., berries, banana slices)
- optional Whipped cream (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter or nonstick spray.
In a blender, combine the flour, milk, eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth and frothy, about 30 seconds. Alternatively, whisk vigorously by hand.
Pour the melted butter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, about 1/2 teaspoon per cup.
Carefully pour the batter into each muffin cup, filling them about halfway full.
Place the muffin tin on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the Dutch baby bunnies puff up and become golden brown at the edges.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the Dutch babies cool slightly. They will deflate and form cute, whimsical shapes.
Optional step: Dust the Dutch baby bunnies with powdered sugar and serve with fresh fruit or whipped cream for added sweetness.
Enjoy your Dutch Baby Bunnies warm for the best flavor and texture!
