Coconut Flour Dutch Babies

First, I have to say this isn't my recipe, but we enjoyed it so much I'm going to share it with you here.  This recipe was submitted by Karen over at the Coconut Recipes website. They have some fabulous recipes if you want to try baking with coconut flour. We LOVE coconut flour. It was a bit of a learning curve in the beginning, but easy peasy once you get used to it. Also, a half a cup goes a long way - so it's not as expensive as it seems.

We've been getting really sick of eggs so we switched it up this morning and my kids couldn't have been happier. The original recipe says it serves 6- 8, and umm, well, this morning it served three. SO, if you are big pigs like us, then I would say 3-4 servings. :)

We made this recipe completely dairy free (because my nursling just can't take it) but by all means slather these babies with butter and maple syrup - your taste buds will thank you.


Dutch Babies



Ingredients:

  • Butter or coconut oil (to grease pan)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 6 tablespoons of corn starch
  •  8 eggs
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • Your choice of topping: maple syrup, honey, warmed apple sauce, raspberries, blueberries, etc.

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Very generously completely slather bottom and sides of a 9 x 13 glass baking pan with butter or coconut oil.

Whisk all the dry ingredients together and quickly add and whisk in the eggs and coconut milk until batter is well mixed. Pour all directly into greased pan. 

Bake for about 20 minutes until puffed and cooked all the way through. Serve immediately.

We love ours slathered in butter and maple syrup - soooo delicious!

Enjoy!

"The creator of the heavens obeys a carpenter; the God of eternal glory listens to a poor virgin. Has anyone ever witnessed anything comparable to this? Let the philosopher no longer disdain from listening to the common laborer; the wise, to the simple; the educated, to the illiterate; a child of a prince, to a peasant."
