Ingredients for Berry Dutch Baby Low Fat

  • 4 large egg whites
  • 2 large eggs
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Nonfat Milk
  • Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Unsalted Butter
  • Raspberries

How to Make Berry Dutch Baby Low Fat

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet or ovenproof frying pan in the preheated oven while it heats up.
  3. In a blender, combine 4 large egg whites, 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup milk (or 1/2 cup milk + 1/2 cup plain yogurt/buttermilk), 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until completely smooth.
  4. Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven. Add 2 tablespoons of butter, swirling to coat the bottom and sides of the pan completely.
  5. Immediately pour the batter into the hot skillet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the Dutch baby is puffed, golden brown, and cooked through.
  6. While the Dutch baby bakes, gently toss 1 cup of fresh or frozen berries (or 1 cup chopped pitted fruit) with 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a small bowl.
  7. Once the Dutch baby is cooked, carefully remove it from the oven. Spoon the berry mixture evenly over the top.
  8. Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
