A deliciously fluffy Dutch Baby filled with crispy bacon and sharp cheddar cheese, perfect for brunch or breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup whole milk (room temperature)
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices bacon (cooked crisp and crumbled)
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 1 tbsp chives (optional)
  • 1 tbsp butter (for the skillet)
  • Drizzle of honey or hot honey (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) with a cast-iron skillet (10–12 inches) inside.
  2. In a blender, combine the eggs, flour, milk, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and slightly frothy. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
  3. Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and add 1 tablespoon of butter, swirling to coat the pan.
  4. Pour the batter into the skillet immediately.
  5. Evenly sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes until the edges are puffed and golden brown.
  7. Once out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley and chives. Drizzle with honey or hot honey if desired.
  8. Slice and serve warm directly from the skillet.

Notes

For a lighter option, substitute bacon with turkey bacon or use dairy-free cheese if needed.
