It is so satisfying to watch this Dutch Baby Pancake and how it puffs in the oven. Its texture is simply irresistible. Due to baking in a hot iron cast pan, the pancake gets a crispy edge while the interior remains soft and almost like a custard.
Preheat oven to 425F (220C) and place a 9-10 inch (23-25cm) iron cast skillet into the oven for at least 8 minutes.
In a bowl whisk eggs with sugar and salt. Add flour and stir until well combined. Add milk and vanilla extract.
Add butter in the hot pan and return to oven for 1 minute, until butter is completely melted.
Remove the pan from the oven and pour batter into the hot skillet.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for 15-17 minutes. The dutch baby will puff up around the edges and will get a golden brown color. It will deflate slightly after removing from the oven.
Top with strawberry slices and dust with powdered sugar.
Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
