This Dutch Baby Pancake is fluffy, ultra filling, super easy to make, and is a delightful American breakfast, snack, brunch, or dessert recipe. You only need a few pantry staples to whip this dish together.
Let eggs and milk sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before preparing batter.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In a medium-sized bowl whisk the room temperature eggs.
Add flour, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla to the bowl. Mix by hand until just combined. It is OK if there are still a few clumps.
Place coconut oil in an 8-9-inch cast iron skillet and heat up in the oven until the oil has just melted, about 1-2 minutes.
Pour batter into skillet and bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 300 degrees, without removing the pan, and continue cooking for 5 minutes.
Top Dutch Baby pancake with fresh berries, powdered sugar, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Meal Prep and Storage
To Prep Ahead: You can prep the toppings by slicing the fruit or making whipped cream the day before if needed.
