Apple Dutch Baby with Strawberries and Yogurt
This is a northwest favorite brunch dish. Normally it is served quite simply dusted with powdered sugar and served with a lemon wedge. Adding the strawberries and yogurt creates a filling main dish. It is important to only use organic fresh strawberries as regular strawberries are heavily treated with pesticides that are unhealthy. But then whenever possible I always choose organic products like butter, flour, sugar, apples, eggs, milk and yogurt!

4 tablespoons butter
1 Gala or Pink Lady apple, peeled, cored and sliced into 8 wedges
