Add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the hot pan once it's heated.

In a bowl, beat 3 large eggs until well combined and slightly frothy.

Add 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar and a pinch of salt to the eggs and mix well.

Pour in 1 cup of room temperature whole milk and mix.

Gradually add in 1/2 cup of bread flour, whisking until the batter is smooth with no large lumps.

Pour the batter directly into the hot pan with melted butter.

Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes until puffed up and golden brown around the edges.

While the Dutch baby is baking, grill the lemon until juicy.

Once the Dutch baby is done, remove it from the oven and add toppings such as butter, powdered sugar, and grilled lemon juice.
