Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I love nearly all breakfast foods and am completely charmed by the breakfast creations that are invented with just a few simple ingredients! I'm sharing with you a Dutch baby pancake. I didn't have these often when I grew up, but my grandma called these hootenannies, so maybe I just didn't make the connection.
If you haven't had one of these before, then think of them as a sweetened version of a popover or a Yorkshire pudding. I love both of these too, and I can remember the popovers my mom would make for us as a kid. She'd fill them with chocolate pudding and whipped cream. I always picked mine up with my hands to eat it, it was that delicious.
