Recipe by Molly Baz A Dutch Baby is somewhere between a custard, a crepe, and a pancake, and it couldn’t be simpler to make. All the ingredients get whipped together in a blender for a super-airy texture and minimal cleanup.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 °F. Melt butter in a medium cast-iron or ovenproof skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until butter foams, then browns (do not burn), about 5 minutes. Swirl butter in skillet to coat sides of pan, then transfer half to a small bowl; set aside.

  2. Blend eggs, flour, milk, salt, and 1/4 cup sugar in a blender until pale and foamy, about 1 minute. Pour batter into hot skillet, then transfer to oven and bake until puffed and lightly browned, 15 –20 minutes.

  3. Drizzle with reserved brown butter and sprinkle with remaining 1 Tbsp. sugar. Cut into wedges and serve.

Why this Brown Butter Dutch Baby works for PCOS

Eating a substantial breakfast like this Brown Butter Dutch Baby is one of the highest-leverage moves you can make for PCOS. In the Jakubowicz et al. 2013 trial published in Clinical Science, women with PCOS who front-loaded calories to breakfast reduced fasting insulin by 56% and increased ovulation rates 50%, with no change in total calories. Front-loading works because insulin sensitivity is highest in the morning and lowest at night.
