Pan Bread Recipes

TEXAS PAN BREAD (PAN DE CAMPO)

Steps:

• This is from a recipe my grandmother use to make in Texas.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Stir together the dry ingredients.
• Blend in the butter using a pastry cutter (you can use your fingers) until the mixture is crumbly.
• Add milk slowly until a soft, not to sticky, ball of dough is formed.
• Turn the dough out on a floured surface and knead gently for about 1 minute.
• Flatten the ball of dough and roll out into about a 1/2 inch thick round.
• Place some butter (about a tablespoon) in a cast iron skillet.
• Place iron skillet in oven just to melt the butter.
• Remove the iron skillet as soon as the butter melts and swirl the butter to coat the bottom of the pan.
• Carefully place the dough into the skillet.
• Bake about 6 minutes, then flip the bread and bake another 6 minutes.
• Variations: Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top of bread after flipping. Spread a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon on top after flipping.

PAN BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Use a large mixing bowl for this recipe. Mix all the dry ingredients together. I do like to add the mushroom, olives, etc that i marked optional, it is up to you however, rather you do or not. I do as I enjoy a lot of flavor.
• 2. I use a large cast iron skillet and spray pam it on a medium high stove. Pour the mixture in the skillet after mixing it thoroughly.
• 3. You may need to pour slowly more oil around the pan as it is cooking. Turn stove down to medium low and cover. About 15 minutes later, turn the bread over in the skillet and cover pan again. Let it cook until the center is completly cooked through.
• 4. This can be served with various soups, and as side dish with main dishes. I like it byself as the main dish, adding butter, mustard and at times sautekraut...and the flavored leftover BEANS!!!! Can pour the beans over the bread and eat it that way too.

Fold in pecans., Transfer to a greased 8-in. round baking pan that will fit in the air fryer. Cover with foil. Cook 25 minutes.
