Mom’s Day is just around the corner so we’re celebrating a little early today with breakfast. This Cinnamon Dutch Baby with Maple Berries is simple and delicious!
Admittedly, I am a little leery of my husband or kids actually making anything in the kitchen. My husband doesn’t cook or spend much time there (unless he’s making coffee!). I’m afraid they’ll make a big mess that they won’t clean up my way and I’ll have to do it all over – so what’s the point of them even trying? I know, I know…it’s the thought the counts. Maybe they could give this simple breakfast recipe a try?
A dutch baby is an oven pancake and really couldn’t be any easier to make. My aunt gave all of her nieces a version of this recipe in our family hope chests several years ago. I added the cinnamon because I really love it and it makes a lovely background for the gorgeous blanket of berries you’ll be heaping on top.
To moms everywhere – enjoy a beautiful day with your families!
