Preheat oven to 425°F.
Add eggs to a blender. Blend until light and frothy, about 1 minutes.
To the eggs add milk, flour, salt, vanilla (if using) and sugar. Blend until just combined, about 30 seconds. Let batter rest at room temperature or in the refrigerator overnight (great trick for an extra easy morning).
Place 10-inch cast iron pan into the oven. Heat pan for 5-10 minutes. Carefully add butter to the pan and return to the oven for an additional 2 minutes to melt butter (be sure not to burn).
Remove hot buttered pan from the oven. Swirl or use a pastry brush to get butter all along the edges of the pan. Pour in batter. Quickly return to the oven and bake for about 18-20 minutes until puffed and golden.
This recipe is easy to adjust based off the size of your pan. The ratio is that for every 1 egg use ¼ cup of milk and ¼ flour.
Dutch babies can also be eaten with savory toppings such as smoked salmon, crème fraiche, blanched asparagus and chives.
