Dutch Baby Ingredients
Dutch Baby Toppings
Much like crepes, dutch babies are highly versatile and can be topped with savory or sweet toppings. The choice is all yours!
I prefer to top my dutch baby with sweet toppings and pair it with a savory breakfast meat like bacon, sausage, or ham.
My favorite dutch baby toppings are in season fruit and powdered sugar. Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, and raspberries pair wonderfully with this tasty puffy breakfast bread. Oh, and whipped cream. Yum!
