Big Family Dutch Babies, also known as German pancakes or Dutch puffs, are a classic breakfast or brunch option that will satisfy even the heartiest of appetites. They are essentially a large baked pancake that puffs up in the oven and then collapses as it cools, forming a lightly sweet and eggy base that can be piled high with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include fresh fruit, whipped cream, maple syrup, and powdered sugar. This recipe is perfect for feeding a crowd, and it can be made in a cast-iron skillet or a baking dish. Whip up a batch on the weekend or for a special occasion and enjoy a decadent breakfast with family and friends.

1.	Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C).
2.	In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until frothy.

4.	In a large cast-iron skillet or baking dish, melt the butter over medium heat.

6.	Pour the batter over the brown sugar and butter in the skillet.
7.	Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until puffed and golden brown.
