Lemon Ricotta Almond Dutch Baby

Thank you, Le Crueset, for providing product for this post and for this giveaway!

            Who really has the time to brunch? With Saturday soccer games, Sunday church service, community events and all the weekend to-do’s, we are just barely surviving. Does this mean we don’t brunch? No. this means we have to be intentional about our brunching habits, ever vigilant, ever persistent.

            Schedule brunch with a girlfriend. Pencil in a date with your favorite couple friends. Be a blessing to someone who needs a safe place to land on a Saturday morning. Might I recommend you serve a Lemon Ricotta Almond Dutch Baby? For your benefit, really. All it takes is a 10 minute oven preheat and a swish and swirl of ingredients in a blender to get yourself a truly impressive/delicious brunch/breakfast item.

           And, here is another piece of advice… open up your phones and go to Instagram this morning and you’ll find a little (huge) giveaway for these three Le Crueset items. New colors: Meringue, Sea Salt, and Fig… welcome. May the enameled cast iron be ever in your favor.

            We brought up this recipe from the archives. Do you remember it? It was from the way beginning of 2016. Times were simpler back then. They were also a bit of a struggle. So, seeing where I am now I feel truly blessed to be doing what I love – full time – content – fulfilled and only slightly anxious. It’s funny how quickly life changes in the blink of 3 years. Shouldn’t we all remember that things will soon morph?

            So, let’s schedule that brunch with our dear friends. Let’s remember that this too shall pass. Grab a coffee by yourself and take a breath. Dive deep into a really old book. Write down all your blessings. We are so lucky to be here, today… learning and growing.

  1. This looks amazing and I LOVE lemons! Just need to get some from my tree. Would love it for Easter! Karlee what’s your opinion about also making it with oranges, since I also have an orange tree:)?

  2. I love a good Dutch baby. The colours on these are gorgeous. Lemon ricotta is a good kick to be on

  3. How many inches was the pan you used? Could I make this in an 8-inch pan or will the ingredients need to be cut down?
