Step-by-Step Instructions
To kick off this delicious adventure, I start by preheating my oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a baking dish. In a mixing bowl, I whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Once everything is well combined, I create a little well in the center to pour in the milk, melted butter, and egg. Then, I gently combine the wet and dry ingredients until a soft dough forms. It’s always so satisfying to feel the dough come together in my hands! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
