Directions
For Whipped Honey Goat Cheese:
1. Combine goat cheese, cream cheese, heavy cream, and honey in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on high speed until light and fluffy.
2. Add orange zest, stir to combine, and set aside.
For Dutch Baby:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Evenly divide butter among four (6-inch) oven-proof skillets or baking dishes. Set it aside.
2. Combine eggs, flour, milk, sugar, and nutmeg in a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is thoroughly combined and no lumps remain.
3. Add skillet to oven and cook for 2-3 minutes, until butter melts. Remove skillets from oven and pour 1/3 cup batter into each pan.
4. Return to oven and bake for 16-18 minutes, until edges and center are puffed and golden. While pancakes are baking, prepare the pears.
For Caramelized Pears:
1. Melt butter in large sauté pan over medium heat. Add pears, cut-side down, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
2. Sprinkle with brown sugar and gently stir. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pears begin to caramelize, about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat and set aside.
To Serve:
1. Remove Dutch Babies from oven and promptly dollop whipped honey goat cheese on top of each pancake, making a mountain in the center. Arrange caramelized pears around whipped cheese.
2. Drizzle honey on whipped cheese and dust Dutch Baby with confectioners’ sugar. Serve hot.
