Skillet Bread

My wife brought this recipe from her own family which probably came from a Better Homes and Gardens (or some such) cookbook. Whatever the origin, it is a wonderfully simple recipe that is sheer comfort food on a dreary day.

This recipe can be made vegan by substituting margarine (or other butter substitute) for the butter and substituting soy milk for the milk.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1¼ cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Mix dry ingredients in bowl. Add milk. Blend with wooden spoon until it forms a moist biscuit-like spongy texture.

Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a medium-sized skillet. Keep heat low and spread butter around evenly.Pour in batter and spread evenly around the skillet.

Cook for 15 minutes or until underside is golden brown. Slide onto plate, add remaining butter to skillet, and flip bread over onto skillet. Cook the other side for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
