Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
Instructions
Place a large, dry skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
Add 1 cup of all-purpose flour to the dry skillet, spreading it out evenly.
Stir the flour constantly using a flat spatula, wooden spoon, or whisk to ensure even browning and to prevent burning.
Continue stirring for 10-12 minutes, or until the flour turns a light golden brown and develops a nutty aroma. Adjust the heat slightly if needed to prevent scorching.
Once the desired color is reached, immediately remove the skillet from the heat to stop the browning process.
Transfer the browned flour to a heat-safe bowl or plate to cool completely.
Store the cooled browned flour in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 months.
