You’ll give pancakes a run for their money when you try this delightful Dutch baby. Originally a German dish, you’ll find Dutch babies are something of a cross between pancakes, crepes, and popovers. They are eggy, doughy, but also light and airy. Their flat surface, too, makes them perfect for adding additional toppings like fruit, jams, whipped cream, and more. Better yet – we love keeping it simple with just a sprinkle of powdered sugar. Try this recipe, courtesy of Hany Liu, at your next breakfast or brunch!

A Message From the Chef
Joining the Very Veggie Movement cooking video production was definitely a learning experience. I had to learn how to utilize what I had on hand in order to film and create a video, which I have never really done before. I’m glad I took on the project, however, because learning how to formulate and edit videos while making delicious food is definitely a unique skill to have.
