A Dutch baby is always so much fun to serve. Partly because the name is so cute, but also because the puffy batter is easy to make and can be taken in so many different flavor directions. For years, I only ever had sweet Dutch babies for breakfast or brunch, maybe filled with fruit and berries and drizzled with maple syrup.

I didn’t know they served lunch until one day I was in the area looking for another restaurant which turned out to be closed. Walking back up the street, I fell over. Just face planted on the pavement for no apparent … [Read more...] about Comté Cheese Tart
