2. Cooking Directions
- Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Place eggs, flour, milk, salt, and nutmeg in a medium bowl; whisk until combined. Batter may still be slightly lumpy. The batter may be made a day ahead and chilled overnight.
- For each pancake, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a 4-inch crepe pan or ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Using a ladle, pour one-third of the batter into the very hot pan; transfer pan or skillet immediately to the oven. Bake until pancake is golden brown and very puffy, about 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar; serve immediately.
Yield: 4 servings
3. Still Hungry?
These pancakes work even better if you make the batter a day ahead and chill it over night. Just whisk to combine again before cooking. We used an individual crepe pan, but you can make one twelve-inch pancake in a cast-iron skillet and serve it cut into wedges.

Memories!
Jamie - December 24, 2006 08:08:34 AM PSTWe used to make this recipe when we were kids. I think we called them Dutch Babies, don't ask me why! In addition to the powdered sugar on top, try sprinkling a little lemon juice. These are definately crowd pleasers!
