Mini Dutch Babies

Talk about a sweet petite! When I was a kid, my Mom often made us a "Giant Dutch Baby" for Sunday brunch after church. She would top it with a little melted butter, then a squeeze of lemon juice and finish with powdered sugar sifted over the whole thing. My favorite was when she would serve it with fresh fruit, usually strawberries and blackberries.

I've made it myself many times over the years, but it never once occurred to me to try baking it in muffin pans. What a fantastic idea! It's the perfect way to serve this treat to guests. Plus they're just so cute.

Here are a couple different versions if you'd like to try it too. . .
