This dish is not Dutch. Apparently Americans in Seattle who created this named it after the German word “Deutsch,” which of course means German in German. Americans are the worst.
This is one of the funnier uses of a cast iron skillet I’ve stumbled across. I just dumped the batter in and it crept up the sides and exploded in volume!
