Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons Neutral oil or additional butter (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add the milk and melted butter to the eggs, whisking until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be thick and slightly lumpy.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil or butter to coat the surface evenly.
Spoon the batter into the skillet in rounds, spreading slightly to form discs about 4-5 inches in diameter. You can adjust the size depending on your preference.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until small bubbles appear on the surface and the edges begin to set. Flip the bread gently using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve the Hootsla Egg Bread warm with butter, maple syrup, jam, or enjoy it plain. It’s also delicious as a side dish or paired with savory toppings.
