Dutch Babies | A Saturday Morning at the RGB

by Rustic Garden Bistro on June 12, 2010

Springtime RGB garden strawberry.

 

What cereal was introduced in 1963? (Answer below in Mr. RGBistro’s crossword puzzle.)

I really hope your Saturday morning routine is a little like ours; sleeping in, snuggling with the dog and steaming lattes…

Breakfast also comes with a garden view, a crossword puzzle and morning fetch with Britta the weimaraner.

An RGB garden breakfast.

I keep telling Mr. RGBistro that one of these a day will keep the brain sharp. Not pictured: the following Sudoku puzzle.

While Mr. RGBistro does the crossword puzzle, I give Britta a little fetch time.

Our garden strawberries seem to be at the peak of their season right now, so we try to eat them unadulterated. What better than serving them with a Dutch baby, syrup, butter and Meyer lemon juice?

Do you have a Saturday morning routine?

Dutch Babies

~ Makes ~

 

2

 

~ Ingredients ~

  • 1 Meyer lemon
  • 3 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 2 large egg s
  • 6 tbsp. milk
  • 6 tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • Pinch kosher salt
  • Handful of strawberries
  • 4 tbsp. maple syrup
  • Powdered sugar

~ Preparation ~

Preparation Time: 30 minutes

  1. Preheat oven to 425˚ F.
  2. Melt unsalted butter. Pour 2 tsp. into the bottom of each two 8 x 8 round or square casserole dishes. Put dishes in oven for a few minutes to brown the butter. Meanwhile:
  3. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and milk. Then add in flour, the rest of the butter and kosher salt.
  4. Pour into the hot casserole dishes and bake for 12 minutes.
  5. While Dutch babies are baking, wash strawberries. Stem them if you want. If they’re in season, you won’t need to add sugar to them. Slice a couple of wedges of Meyer lemon, heat up some maple syrup and plate your dish while waiting for the Dutch baby to come out.
  6. Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately, while the baby is still hot and poofy.

Oops… a little overloaded on the maple syrup.

Mr. RGBistro would like to point out that I’m not old enough to know the answer… which he’s right: I didn’t.

WOW that looks so good.
Saturday’s we’re still on the go but Sunday’s are our relaxation day.
We have a Sunday morning routine, my husband and I both prepare breakfast for our family, bacon, eggs, hash browns, toast, fruit platter and coffee…lots of coffee.

Hi roomie! Thanks for your comment on Food-G. Oh this is lovely. and so my style. Can I come for breakfast? Love what you’ve got going on here. Think I’ll come back regularly to your garden oasis.

Your strawberries look so delicious, I can almost taste them.

Saturday morning is my market morning. The wife usually sleeps in while I’m off to the farmer’s market around 8 or 9am to see what’s going to inspire me for the week. Then it’s a lazy breakfast at home.

Unfortunately, it’s already gotten too hot here for much eating out on our deck… it’s often 80-90 degrees out by 11am :(
