Dutch baby pancakes, also sometimes called German pancakes, are like a hybrid of crepes and a popover made in one pan. If that sounds amazing, that's because it is! These fluffy and extra decadent pancakes can be either savory or sweet. This specific Dutch baby pancake is a savory version, and the great thing about this recipe is that you can customize it however you want.
