Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Ask the hotline about this step!Melt butter in 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add brown sugar, cherries, and a squeeze of juice from half a lemon and stir to combine. Simmer until the cherries have released some juice, and the sauce is thick and shiny, about 5 minutes.
Ask the hotline about this step!While the cherries are caramelizing, place the eggs, milk, vanilla, salt, and flour in a blender and blend for 30 seconds on low speed. Increase the speed to high and blend for one minute more.
Ask the hotline about this step!Pour the batter on top of the cherries and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cherry juices are bubbling happily. Serve immediately with a simple dusting of powdered sugar.
Ask the hotline about this step!hooray! thank you, Midge!
This would be best with fresh fruit, however, winter is coming and I found substituting a 15 ounce can of pie filling fruit for the first four ingredients made an acceptable filling. However, I did use a couple tablespoons of butter to coat the bottom and sides of the skillet before warming up the can of fruit.
what a fantastic tip! thanks, gbuda! sidenote- i grew up in a town called Buda in Texas!
These look very very very very yummy! Can't wait to try them!=)

very very nice. I have a couple of pounds of cherries and I think this will be tomorrows breakfast. Great photo too.
thanks, thirschfeld! i hope you like it :)
Our blueberries are ripening now . . . I bet this would be heavenly with blueberries, instead!! (Much easier to prepare, too. Just pick, wash, and use.) ;o)
haha- yes that does sound wonderful! and much easier- my hands were stained for a while from removing the pits from those cherries. thank you!
hooray! thanks, melissav!
YUM, welcome back even though I didn't know you were MIA...the more the merrier!!!

This looks GREAT - have never heard of a Dutch Baby but YUM. Where were you?
hey sweet girl! thank you! these are our busy months at work, but everything is settling back to normal now, which means, happily, more time in the kitchen :)
Yes yes yes. One of my all-time favorite brunch dishes. Welcome back!
thank you, rivka! i only learned about dutch babies a year or so ago after a girlfriend whipped one up for breakfast after a bachelorette slumber party. it was so puffy and fun!
thanks for the lovely review! i'm so happy you liked it :)
Hello hello! Hope you've been up to something fun! By the looks of this recipe, it seems you have!
oh mrslarkin! thank you! i've actually been working a lot, but things are slowing down now so i have time to cook again, hooray!
thank you, drbabs! happy to be back again!
I love dutch babies...I have one on Food52 that I have used for 30 years! I like the idea of mixing the cherries into the batter.
your Henry Thiele's Pancake II is a beauty! i love the classic with lemon and sugar :) as you can see from the picture, the cherries stopped this from puffing up as much as a normal dutch baby, but it still tasted pretty nice!
Oh baby, I'm going to make this first chance I get. Happy to see you back!
yahoo! thanks, monkeymom! it's good to be back :)
Oh, I would be so happy to find this on my breakfast table.
