Skillet Bread BAT


Hold the lettuce, swap in avocado. Fry up a thick slab of homegrown bacon and generously slice a ripe tomato fresh off the garden vine. Sandwich between two slices of Skillet Bread. Enjoy the Hallelujah Chorus as it plays in your mind while your taste buds sing.

Skillet Bread

Butter
1 c. flour (if you have it, freshly ground hard white wheat flour is superb!)
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt (sea salt is preferred)


Heat butter in skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile in small bowl blend flour, baking powder and salt. Add enough cold water (about 1/2 c. or so) to make a dough. Working quickly use fingers to shape into a circle and place in heated skillet, handling as little as possible. Cook until browned, flip and cook until done, about 4 minutes per side. Serves 2-3. *I usually double the recipe (at least).
