I`m one of those people who absolutely love and adore eating breakfast all day, everyday. For dinner? Yes. For lunch? Yes. I blame my sweet tooth. It makes me crave waffles and berries for dinner instead of pasta or chicken!
I`ve been meaning to make dutch babies since the first time I laid eyes on a recipe. Unfortunately, it took me approximately 3 years to get on it! I wish I hadn`t, though. Boy, I was totally missing out.
Not only do these dutch babies look super cute since they are minis, they`re so good! I`m wish I hadn`t been so lazy when it came to trying these pancakes out. Aside from being called dutch babies, they are also called German pancakes, or pancake puffs.
Personally, I love waffles. All sorts of them. Pancakes are on the lower end of my breakfast foods preferences. However, I love baking and when I realized I can bake pancakes, I was completely on board. I love the maple apple topping, too. Of course, if you`re lazy, you can just drizzle these with some maple syrup and call it a meal.
These are so pretty, too! They look fancy since the edges puff up, yet, they`re incredibly simple to make. You whip everything up in just ONE bowl. Then, you bake them, and boom, done. :)
