Gingerbread Dutch Baby Recipe | Buttered Side Up

It’s Christmas week! 

I can’t believe December has rushed along so quickly. I feel like I haven’t eaten nearly enough festive food or listened to enough Christmas carols.

Also, I have some last-minute shopping to do. How about you?

 

Gingerbread Dutch Baby Recipe | Buttered Side Up

This Gingerbread Dutch Baby is absolutely divine. The spices aren’t overwhelming, but more than subtle.

Helen and I absolutely adored it. We ate it all between the two of us (with breaks). I groaned as I took bite after bite. Nom.

This would be perfect for an easy Christmas morning breakfast!
