A family favorite that is sure to amaze old and young alike. This baked pancake, also called Dutch Babies, puff up in amphitheater or bumpy forms. I like them with melted butter, powdered sugar and lemon juice, Dave goes for the traditional butter and syrup. This recipe does not need any adjustment for altitude or convection baking.
