Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10- to 12-inch oven-safe skillet or cast iron pan in the oven to heat as it preheats.
In a blender, combine the eggs, whole milk, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and frothy. Alternatively, you can whisk the mixture vigorously in a mixing bowl.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven using oven mitts. Add the unsalted butter to the skillet and swirl it around to coat the bottom and sides completely.
Pour the batter into the hot, buttered skillet and immediately place it back into the oven.
Bake for 18-22 minutes or until the Dutch Baby is puffed, golden, and slightly crisp around the edges.
Remove from the oven. The pancake will deflate slightly as it cools, which is normal.
Garnish with powdered sugar, lemon wedges, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy!
