Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 Egg
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for greasing skillet)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Heat a cast-iron skillet or any oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the butter or oil to grease the skillet and swirl it around to coat the bottom and sides evenly.
Pour the batter into the prepared skillet, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes on the stovetop to help the bread develop a golden crust on the bottom.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while the bread cooks on the stovetop.
After 10 minutes, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the top of the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the bread cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Enjoy the skillet breakfast bread warm with butter, jam, honey, or your favorite spreads.
