<\/a><\/p>\n

\nThese days, weekends are busy for me. My <\/b>cake business – Lucy Burton Cakes<\/a><\/b>\u00a0– is getting busier and busier, and while I am loving all I’m doing, it does tend to occupy most of my weekends and evenings. Increasingly, I find myself missing those leisurely weekend mornings of old, where the only thing to trouble over was who was getting coffee and who was cooking brunch.<\/div>\n

And so, for a little slice of nostalgia for those early days in London, I’m sharing one of my favourite weekend breakfast recipes. Dutch in name (and origin, according to Google) but thoroughly American by adoption, the Dutch Baby falls somewhere between a pancake and a Yorkshire pudding – a concept that could get me pretty much anywhere in a hot minute.<\/p>\n

The key to a great Dutch Baby is a well-rested batter and a hot, hot oven. I’ve served mine here with some sweet and juicy caramelised peaches, but they’re just as good with a simple squeeze of lemon and sugar, or dollops of chocolate.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\nTHE INGREDIENTS<\/p>\n

\n3 fresh sliced peaches, or one 400g pot of Nature\u2019s Finest Peach slices, drained<\/p>\n

\n30g flaked almonds, toasted<\/p>\n

\n50g butter<\/p>\n

\n2 eggs<\/p>\n

\n120g milk (dairy or oat\/nut-based)<\/p>\n

\n60g plain flour<\/p>\n

\n1 tsp vanilla bean paste (optional) or 1 tsp cinnamon \u2028(optional)<\/p>\n

\nPinch salt<\/p>\n

\n1 tbsp maple syrup<\/p>\n

\nFreshly squeezed lemon juice, to serve<\/p>\n

\nIn a blender, blitz together the eggs, milk, flour, vanilla\/cinnamon (if using) and salt until smooth. If you don\u2019t have a blender, you can do this by hand \u2013 place the dry ingredients in a bowl and make a well in the centre, adding the beaten egg and milk gradually and whisking to incorporate the flour evenly. Leave to rest for 20-30 minutes.<\/p>\n

Heat your oven to its highest temperature, ideally around 230-250\u00b0C. Place half the butter in a 10\u201d oven-proof frying pan, then allow to melt in the oven and get very hot (for around 2 minutes).<\/p>\n

Open the oven door, and carefully pour the batter into the hot frying pan. Quickly close the door and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have puffed up and are golden brown. Try not to open the oven door for the first 10 minutes, as this will lower the temperature and reduce the rise on the Dutch Baby. Remove from the oven once cooked.<\/p>\n

While the Dutch Baby is cooking, prepare the peaches. Heat the maple syrup and remaining butter in a saucepan. Once the butter begins to foam, add the peaches with a pinch of cinnamon if desired. Cook for a couple minutes until golden and caramelised.<\/p>\n

Place the peaches inside the Dutch Baby, and scatter with almonds. Serve immediately with a squeeze of lemon juice.<\/p>\n
