Pie maker quick breads are a simple, delicious way to create a variety of quick bread recipes in a convenient pie maker. These handy appliances make it easy to bake individual servings without the need for an oven, saving both time and effort. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or even a quick dessert, this recipe uses basic ingredients to produce delightful, tender quick breads.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure out all your ingredients: 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup self-raising flour, 1/4 cup softened butter, and 1 egg.
- Plug in and preheat your pie maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the egg to the butter-sugar mixture, and mix until well combined.
- Gradually fold in the self-raising flour until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain. Do not overmix.
- Spoon the batter into the preheated pie maker, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. This allows room for the batter to rise without spilling over.
- Close the pie maker and cook according to the pie maker’s instructions. This typically takes about 5-7 minutes, but cooking times may vary based on the pie maker's model.
- Check the quick breads by inserting a toothpick into the center. They are done when the toothpick comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached.
- Carefully remove the quick breads from the pie maker and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. These quick breads are perfect as a snack or light dessert.
Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before you start mixing the batter. This helps achieve a smoother batter and more even baking.
- Grease the pie maker plates lightly with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the quick breads.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in dense quick breads. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of a quick bread. If it comes out clean, the bread is done. If not, give it a few more minutes.
- Experiment by adding flavorings like vanilla extract, cinnamon, or fruits such as blueberries or chocolate chips to the batter for variation.
