I had never had an oven pancake or Dutch Baby before, but they looked so good in the pics that I decided to try. I preheated the oven with a 10" iron skillet inside, and mixed the batter in a blender while the oven was heating, using only 3 eggs as others suggested. I also whipped about half a cup of cream to top the fruit intended as filling. It took about 23 minutes to cook, and it puffed up beautifully and had a dark golden crust where it was against the pan, and a medium golden top. The bottom had a 1/4" thick custardy layer, and the top was crispy - a great combination! I cut it into 2 pieces for DH and I , and served it with berries, whipped cream, and a spritz of lemon juice. I also tried a teaspoonful of maple syrup on one side, just to taste it that way. I ate my half with fruit, and it was very filling - I was stuffed! Next time I'll try it with just maple syrup and a little lemon juice. This could serve 4 people with fruit and bacon or sausage on the side, or 2 to 3 generous servings on it's own.
