Batter bread is bread made with a substantial liquid-to-flour ratio, so that the dough is a batter. It is known for its ease of preparation.[1]
Batter bread is a staple food of the American South. Batter bread can be made with wheat flour, cornmeal or corn flour, or both.[2] A recipe for batter bread appears in The Virginia Housewife by Mary Randolph.[3] Sally Lunn, Johnny cake, corn pone, and pancakes are well-known batter breads.
