Ingredients
butter
1/4 cup (cut into pieces)
eggs
3 large (beaten)
salt
1/8 teaspoon (to taste)
milk
3/4 cup (whole or 2%)
all-purpose flour
3/4 cup (sifted)
fresh blueberries or frozen blueberries
1 cup (individually frozen if using frozen)
cream cheese
4 ounces (softened)
honey
2 tablespoons (for mixing)
cinnamon or nutmeg
1 dash (optional)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Adjust the oven rack to the center position.
2
In an ovenproof skillet or cast iron skillet, add the butter and place it in the oven to melt as it preheats. Keep an eye on it, and it should be fully melted by the time the oven reaches 250°F.
3
While the butter is melting, whisk the eggs and salt in a medium mixing bowl until well combined. Gradually stir in the milk until mixed, then sift in the flour while whisking continuously to create a smooth batter with minimal lumps.
4
Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbling, carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Pour the batter into the hot skillet evenly, then sprinkle the fresh blueberries generously over the top.
5
Return the skillet to the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are puffed up and the top is golden brown.
6
While the Dutch baby is baking, prepare the Honey Whipped Cream Cheese. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, honey, and a dash of your preferred spice (cinnamon or nutmeg). Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
7
Once baked, remove the Dutch baby from the oven and serve immediately, garnished with dollops of honey whipped cream cheese.
