Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a heavy cast iron skillet inside for about 10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 4 eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth.
- Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes to achieve the desired fluffiness.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the hot skillet, swirl to coat, then pour in the batter. Bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
- In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of chopped rhubarb and 1/2 cup of sugar over medium heat. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until thickened.
- In another saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk, whisk in 3 egg yolks and 3 tablespoons of sugar until thickened (5-7 minutes). Strain for a smooth custard.
- Once the Dutch baby is done, cool for a minute, then top with rhubarb compote, pour over vanilla custard, and sprinkle with toasted almonds.

Notes
Serve immediately for the best experience, as the Dutch baby begins to deflate once cooled. Can be adapted to gluten-free and dairy-free diets.
