Don’t you just kind of wish this was in front of you right now?
Because I kind of do.
I am seriously mad at myself that I waited so long to share these with you guys. Like a whole four days or so. Now, looking through these pictures they are all I want to smell baking in the oven. The smell alone is reason to make them. It is so warm, cozy, comforting and fall. Cinnamon, sugar, vanilla and butter. Just reminds me of the holidays.
Speaking of which, I am so not ready for.
How is it that Christmas is in eighty days (I know this because I have not one, but two Christmas countdowns on my computer)? Yes, I am a little obsessed, but still not ready to start thinking about Christmas. I just want to enjoy Halloween and Thanksgiving first, and definitely all the pumpkin I can get my hands on. Somehow though, other than these easy as ever chocolate chip pumpkin cookie bars, this is the only other recipe that I have photographed with pumpkin!
So crazy, because pumpkin is one of my favorites, but there are just so many awesome fall flavors. I want to show you guys them all but I am finding that there is just simply not enough days. Not enough days to show you guys all the fall foods I am dreaming up in my head. SO many that I actually have a hard time choosing what is best to show you.
It’s such a rough life over here.
Let’s talk dutch babies.
I grew up with dutch babies. My mom is a freak for them, my grandma is a pro at making them and oh my gosh when they come out of the oven it is a total awe moment.
They are huge and puffy and just gorgeous.
But it only lasts for like 30 seconds to a minute.
FYI, that is just too short for, slow as a turtle, me to snap a good photo. It just did not happen.
But you get the idea! They are one incredibly huge puffy pancake. Except these dutch babies have a GIANT swirl of cinnamon, sugar and butter. Just like everyone’s favorite cinnamon buns. So amazing.
Plus, they are so much easier than a cinnamon roll. No rising, rolling and more rising. Just blend, pour, swirl, bake, drizzle and devour all in thirty minutes! I used mini skillets for these, but feel free to use a ten or twelve-inch cast iron skillet. They all work great, but the mini skillets were kind of fun. Just sayin.

Oh and yeah, and around here they are of course studded with chocolate chips. What a sweet way to start the day!
Oh my god you have outdone everyone everywhere who’s posting pumpkin recipes. This looks AMAZING. So brilliant to turn a dutch baby into a cinnamon roll hybrid!!!!
YES! What an awesome comment! That is a hard thing to do! Thanks Erika
This is a great way to use pumpkin! I’ve never made a dutch baby, but I have definitely drooled over photos of them quite often. This beauty is no exception – YUM!
I’ve seriously never had a dutch baby, but they always look so delicious. And just like you said, I’m sure they smell incredible!! Beautifully done.
OHG! Make one! They are so good!
Thanks Todd!
these look/sound so incredibly delicious! YES I so wish I had one sitting in front of me right now. especially in those little skillets! so freaking cute.
pinned. 🙂
Thanks Abbie! Wish I could send you one! 🙂
This is soooo soooo beautiful! I just LOVE these! Another drool worthy recipe!
Thank you so much, Sophia!
These look interesting even if I just love the basic ones SO much but my mission to educate lives on. I’m part German and my grandparents were full on, from Germany Germans so…calling a German pancake a Dutch baby just hurts my heart!
It was one persons attempt to popularize the German pancake; assuming the word Deutsch (German for German) would just be too hard for Americans to bear, it was shortened to Dutch which, as you can imagine, is most annoying to Germans because this popular pancake is now credited to the Dutch! He started a restaurant, made them in a smaller version, hence Dutch Baby.
OK, now that I’m off my bandwagon I can tell you these sound good even if the chocolate chip part is too much for me in the morning; still, I could do cinnamon roll!
The basic one is incredible, no argument there! But these are fun for a treat! I have to admit that these were totally a dessert the day I made them, but I am pretty sure we could do them as breakfast too. LOL!
And about the name, I never knew!! This is always what my mom called them!! So happy you informed me of this. So a dutch baby is actually just a german pancake that was twisted into being called dutch?
Thanks Barbara!
OMG, this is stunning! And individual skillets, I love that! Btw, your bloglovin feed doesn’t show a picture of the post, you might want to look into that; from what I know is a configuration thing.
Thanks for the head up, Paula! I will look into that! 🙂
Oh girl, this needs to be in front of me NOW! Fabulous!
Thanks Ashley! Wishing I could send you one!
Sweet goodness, this is straight up fabulous!!
Thanks Katrina!
Omigosh! These are gorgeous and the ingredients aren’t anything too complicated. I’d love to try making them when I’m home over break!
Thanks Rebecca! Hope you love them! They are the perfect thing to make over the holidays!
Yes,I totally wish this was in front of me with my morning coffee right now! Gorgeous!
Thank you, Tina!
Granted it’s early (5:30 AM), but I’ve read through the recipe 5 times and can’t see how many chocolate chips you suggest. I could probably guess, but how many did you use?
Thanks
Ed
So sorry, I used 1/3 cup! I will fix the recipe now. Hope you love these!
Yum!!!
Thanks Charlotte!
Yum! I’ve been wanting to make dutch babies. I like the combination you made. I can smell the aroma now…
Thanks Norma! You have to make a dutch baby, so good!
I love how adorable these are and between the pumpkin, choc, cinnamon-sugar, vanilla – I bet your house smelled amazing!
Thanks so much, Averie! The house did smell pretty awesome!
