Learning to bake is about what not to do as much as it is learning what works well. I started my first attempt at a Dutch Baby, a fairly simple recipe from Food Network, with a lovely start-over mistake. Cooking mistakes are typically a little more forgiving but I’ve found baking are usually less so. I should have known better, in cookies wet ingredients are always first, and dry ingredients are mixed in parts after. Luckily I had all the ingredients to remake the batter, and it was definitely worth it!
4 Eggs
1 Cup Milk
2/3 Cup Flour
1/4 Cup Melted Butter
3 Tbsp Sugar
a Little Vanilla
1 Cup Milk
2/3 Cup Flour
1/4 Cup Melted Butter
3 Tbsp Sugar
a Little Vanilla
Clumpy lesson learned.
Mix in a blender (or with a mixer, wet ingredients first).
Melt some butter in a cast-iron skillet.
Add 1 sliced pear, then the batter.
Bake at 375 degrees, 35 minutes.
Dust with confectioners’ sugar.
Happy Cooking!
