This blackberry lemon Dutch baby is the best way to start the day. Ready in no time and perfect when served with ice cream or whipped cream. Plus you’ll love that blackberry lemon combo!
I’m all over my love for Dutch babies. They have crispy edges, soft centers and are usually packed full of citrus flavor. I make them several times a month and almost always switch up the flavor combinations with whatever I can find in my fridge. I personally love this version because who doesn’t love that classic blackberry lemon combo.
PLUS, not to sound totally horrible, Dutch babies are the only type of babies I want in my house. Soooooooo much easier to deal with than actual human babies.
Am I right?
If you’ve never made a Dutch baby I BEG you stop what you’re doing right this second and make this recipe. Well, within reason. If you’re driving a car or something don’t just stop it in the middle of the highway to try and cook this recipe.
PLUSPLUSPLUS this recipe is just soooooo pretty! It makes your lunch (or brunch…or dinner) table looks like something that jumped right out of a magazine. Trust me, this Dutch baby is going to be your new favorite breakfast recipe.
