Equipment

  • - Hand Mixer: Essential for combining wet and dry ingredients smoothly without overworking the batter.

  • - Slow Cooker: Perfect for gently cooking spoon breads, ensuring even heat distribution for a consistent result.

  • - Cast Iron Skillet: Offers excellent heat retention and an ideal surface for browning butter or frying bits to add texture.

  • - Whisk Set (metal & silicone): Useful for whipping eggs, stirring thick batters without lumps, and cleanup is easier with silicone pieces.

  • - Measuring Cups & Spoons: Ensure precise measurements of ingredients which can significantly affect the outcome of baking recipes like spoon breads.

  • - Digital Kitchen Scale (optional): For those who prefer weight measurements over volume, providing accuracy in ingredient proportions.
