Make sure the pan is well greased. I remember trying to pry madelines
out of my pan more than once.

Some people dip them in chocolate.

I'd probably put some caramel frosting on top with some pecans.

Actually, I thought some kind of lemon glaze might be nice, but I love
lemon!

I'd want to add poppy seeds. Or maybe a blueberry glaze.

There's one thing I love on Dutch Baby's, and it's powdered sugar and lemon
juice. You could be right.

Now you're thinkin'. That'd be perfect. Koko and I made Dutch babies
last weekend. Hadn't made them in a while and forgot how simple and
good they are. I use vanilla sugar (which has been "percolating" for
months now) and lemon on Dutch babies, but if you squeezed just a tiny
bit of lemon juice, then sprinkled with powdered sugar...yum!

I think vanilla sugar lasts forever.

That is a great recipe....used that before. I don't have the pans but just make and use a small #40 ice cream scoop and just put on parchment paper. Makes a nice sized tea cookie.

It was wonderful, I loved it. The powdered sugar and squeeze of citrus
is just perfect.

I have no idea why I don't make them more often. They're easy and
delicious. Why, why, why???

Heavy? They're as light as any other souffle. I use all purpose
flour and I couldn't ask for a better rise.

All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.

You must be using the wrong recipe, Bob. The Dutch Baby I make is
anything but (and you can substitute 1 t. vanilla with 3 T. sugar):

@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

Dutch Baby

breakfast

3 tablespoons butter, melted and divided
1/2 cup flour
3 tablespoons vanilla sugar; plus extra for serving
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup whole milk; room temperature
2 large eggs; room temperature
lemon wedges

Preheat oven to 375° F.

Place 2 tablespoons of the melted butter into a 10-inch cast iron
skillet and place in the oven. Set the remaining tablespoon of melted
butter aside to cool slightly. Wait 10 minutes before assembling the
other ingredients.

Place the flour, vanilla sugar, salt, milk, eggs and remaining
tablespoon of melted butter into the bowl of a food processor or
blender and process for 30 seconds. Carefully pour the batter into the
preheated skillet. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 30 to 35
minutes or until the edges are puffed and brown. Sprinkle with
additional vanilla sugar and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes: Alton Brown

Yield: 4 servings

Preparation Time: 15 mi

The recipe you posted gets about 50% of its calories from fat; I'd call
that heavy, myself.
