Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet in the oven while it preheats.
In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Set the batter aside to rest for 5 minutes.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven using oven mitts. Add the butter to the skillet and swirl to coat the bottom and sides.
Pour the batter into the hot skillet, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the mixed berries over the top of the batter.
Place the skillet back in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the Dutch baby is puffed and golden brown around the edges.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the Dutch baby cool for 1-2 minutes. It will deflate slightly as it cools.
Dust the top with powdered sugar and serve immediately. Optionally, drizzle with maple syrup for extra sweetness.
