We are blueberry fanatics around here (this is why we joined Costco – the money we spend on fruit got to be insanity) and I love finding new ways to use them. My husband usually treats us to blueberry pancakes on Saturday morning but I found this new recipe in my Food Network magazine (use code SEEMOMCLICK to save 20%) and had to try it. I tweaked it just a bit but I definitely need to credit them for this one: Blueberry Dutch Baby Pancakes in a Muffin Tin.
If you don’t know what Dutch Baby is (and I didn’t) it’s a German pancake that’s like a sweet popover. It looks like it’s traditionally made in a cast iron skillet but I love this muffin tin variation to make it easy to serve – and eat!
If you have blueberries at home I’m betting you also have everything else you need to make these. You can mix the batter in a blender, and probably with a mixer too, but I found it a snap to make with my hand blender. I love that kitchen tool! See what you think. We LOVE them!
Blueberry Dutch Baby Pancakes in a Muffin Tin
These Blueberry Dutch Baby Pancakes in a Muffin Tin are simple to make and so delicious. A perfect easy (yet fancy looking!) recipe for breakfast or brunch. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray 12-cup muffin tray with cooking spray. Evenly (just eyeball it) divide blueberries into each muffin cup. Set aside. Combine the milk, flour, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and baking powder and either mix in a blender, or put ingredients in deep bowl and use a hand blender to mix well until fully combined. (I used the hand blender. Works like a charm!) Pour batter evenly over the blueberries in each muffin cup. Bake for 28-32 minutes. They're done when the outsides start to brown and the middle no longer looks wet.Blueberry Dutch Baby Pancakes in a Muffin Tin

I love Dutch babies, and your mini ones do not disappoint. They rose beautifully and looked so pretty. They had a great flavor and texture. I really enjoyed the addition of the blueberries. So good. Made as written but I used butter in place of the oil, as I was out of oil. Thank you for sharing a recipe that I will make often.
Lindsay Frank says
You’re welcome! This is one of our favorites. My teen daughter makes them for us often! Great tip about the butter. Thanks for passing that along!
Alicia says
You definitely need to enjoy these with a splash of fresh squeezed lemon juice like a traditional Dutch baby! Thanks for the idea to try individual sized servings!
Lindsay Frank says
Ooh, good tip! I will try that!
