Sheet Pan Suppers: Big Dutch Baby with Meyer Lemon Sugar

Sheet Pan Suppers: Big Dutch Baby with Meyer Lemon Sugar

Big Dutch Baby with Meyer Lemon Sugar8 T. (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. ground nutmeg
8 large eggs
2 cups milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
½ cup sugar
2 tsp. grated Meyer Lemon Zest
Fresh Berries for Serving

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees with a rack in the center position. Place the butter on a sheet pan and put the pan in the oven until the butter melts and begins to bubble, just a few minutes. While the butter is melting, whisk together the flour, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl.  In a blender or food processor, whirl the eggs on high for 1 minute. Slowly pour in the milk and vanilla (with the motor running). Pour into a large bowl and whisk in the flour; the batter will be really thin. Pour the batter onto the sheet pan (make sure the melted butter is evenly coating the pan first), and then bake until the pancake is puffy and golden around the edges, about 15 to 20 minutes. While it bakes, mash together sugar and lemon zest in a small bowl until sugar is fragrant and yellow. When the pancake is done, remove it from the oven and sprinkle generously with sugar. Cut into squares and serve immediately with fresh berries and extra sugar on the side.
