Air Fryer Focaccia

Air Fryer Focaccia

The good news for all of us who adore air fryers is that you can make amazing, delectable focaccia bread in an air fryer. Yes, bread made in an air fryer has the potential to be so delicious that it will be difficult to believe it was not baked in an oven. I’m a big admirer of anything air-fried, so I had to try creating my artisanal oven-baked focaccia in my air fryer, and it turned out fantastically. You will love this focaccia bread made in an air fryer. It will also be a wonderful present for family members, neighbors, and friends. Give it a go! You’re going to adore it!

Ingredients:

Dough for focaccia

  1. My preferred all-purpose flour for this recipe is King Arthur flour, 500 g.
  2. 400 g of room temperature water
  3. Three grams of instant yeast
  4. Nine grams of sea salt

Additional Ingredients and Toppings

  1. 2 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
  2. Six tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, plus more if necessary;
  3. two finely sliced or minced garlic cloves
  4. 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
  5. one cup of finely chopped herbs parsley, sage, dill, and basil

Guidelines

  • Water, flour, yeast, and salt should all be added to a big basin. Make sure the ingredients do not come into contact with one another before mixing. By hand, combine the dough by squeezing it between your fingers until a cohesive, sticky mass forms. Place a plastic wrap over the bowl and allow it to rest for 20 minutes.
  • Stretch and fold for twenty minutes, then for twenty more minutes, and then for twenty more minutes. Once the dough has been shaped into a ball, coat it with two tablespoons olive oil. For an additional twenty minutes, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rest.
  • Scoop out three equal portions of dough and place them onto three 7.5″ x 5″ foil pans that have been oiled with two teaspoons of butter (See Notes). Each dough piece should be stretched to completely fill the pan’s bottom. Refrigerate for up to 24 hours or overnight after covering with plastic wrap.
  • Two hours before baking, take the dough out of the refrigerator and cover it to allow it to prove at room temperature.
  • Drizzle a generous amount of olive oil over the dough. Make deep indentations all over the dough’s surface using your fingertips. After distributing the toppings, pour a little olive oil over everything.
  • Bake for about 12 minutes at the highest temperature, which is typically 400F. Since each air fryer bakes bread differently, start checking early. Your bread might be done sooner, or the baking time might need to be extended by a few minutes. You don’t have to preheat your air fryer.
  • The focaccia should be carefully moved to a large cutting board, sliced, and served hot. It tastes best at this point. Have fun!

NOTES 

  • This recipe’s pan size (7.,5″ 5″) is meant for my air fryer, which has an inside measurement of 10″ by 10″. You might need to use different sized pans and split the dough into multiple portions, like 2, 4, etc., depending on the size of your air fryer.

Store Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast

How To Store Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast

  • Any remaining creamed chipped beef sauce can be stored in the fridge for up to four days. You’ll also want to store the toast or biscuits separately from the gravy to prevent it from turning into soggy mush

How to Present Toast with Creamed Chipped Beef

  • For their chipped beef, many people like to serve thick, golden slices of buttered Texas toast; however, you can also serve the gravy over warm buttermilk biscuits.
  • The rich creamed chipped beef white sauce can be prepared ahead of time, though this recipe is best served immediately after preparation. All you need to do is reheat the skillet and toast the Texas toast slices when it’s time to serve at the table.

Ingredients:

  1. 1 pound of mildly flavored breakfast sausage
  2. Garlic powder, half a teaspoon
  3. Salt and pepper to taste; if desired, substitute cajun spices like Tony Satcheries for the salt and pepper.
  4. three cups of milk
  5. one-third cup of all-purpose flour
  6. Homemade or store-bought biscuits (if preparing biscuits and gravy)

Instructions:

  1. After crumbling the sausage, add it to a frying pan.
  2. Sausages should be fried until they are well cooked.
  3. After removing the sausage from the pan, set it aside.
  4. Keep the sausage’s fat and oil in the pan.
  5. While continuously whisking to remove any lumps, add the flour.
  6. Next, add the garlic powder, salt, and pepper for seasoning. Thoroughly combine the components.
  7. Stir in beef and cayenne; cook until warmed through. Serve over toast.

Notes

  • Add some finely chopped fresh herbs, like parsley, chives, and thyme, to the gravy.
  • If you want to kick up the heat in your gravy, spices like cayenne, rosemary, sage, and smoked paprika are fantastic.
  • You can substitute sausage links (without the casings) for the bulk sausage in this recipe.
  • Use either full or 2% milk for the greatest consistency. For gluten-free variation, use Gluten Free Flour instead of ordinary flour

Southern Caramel cake

Southern Caramel cake

 The greatest caramel cake recipe available online is for Southern Caramel Cake! This is the recipe you must try if you want delicious yellow cake with the greatest real caramel icing. For genuine, this is the real deal. If you enjoy caramel-flavored treats, you should definitely check

Ingredients:

  1. 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
  2. 2 cups sugar
  3. 4 eggs
  4. 3 cups flour, self-rising
  5. 1 cup buttermilk
  6. 2 teaspoons vanilla

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare three 9-inch cake pans by greasing them and adding optional parchment paper. Beat butter until light and fluffy and then add sugar and beat for about 5 more minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, and mix well after each. Add flour and buttermilk, alternately, beginning and ending with flour and mix well after each. Add vanilla and beat well. Divide among pans and bake for 25-30 minutes until set.
  • Turn out of pans onto cooling racks and allow to cool completely. Prepare Southern Caramel Icing as cakes are cooling then frost the cake.

Southern Caramel Frosting:

  1. 2 cups sugar
  2. 1 cup buttermilk
  3. ½ cup Crisco
  4. ½ cup butter
  5. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Mix all ingredients in a 3-4 quart cast iron dutch oven.
  • Swirl pan to keep ingredients moving in the pan. Cook to softball stage 235º – 245º on a candy thermometer or when tested in a cup of cold water. Remove from heat and beat with a wooden spoon until creamy and ready to spread.
    No thermometer? Do the cold water test:
  • Take a some of the caramel and drop it into a bowl or cup of cold water. Give it a few seconds to cool. Fish around in the bowl or cup of cold water and try to retrieve the caramel and make a little ball with it.
    If you stick your fingers into the bowl, pull out a gooey mess and you can’t do anything but smear the caramel, you need to boil the caramel some more. There is still too much water in your caramel and the concentration of sugar is too low. The caramel may even form little threads in the water, but if you cannot get the threads to form into a ball, you have some more boiling to do.
