How To Make Toasted Milk Powder
Adding toasted milk powder to cakes & cookies gives them a deep, nutty, caramelised flavour. Use alongside brown butter for maximum flavour!
Servings: 1 Small Jar
Equipment
- Frying Pan
Ingredients
- 100 g Milk Powder Whole Or Skimmed
Instructions
- Add milk powder to a dry frying pan & set over a low heat.
- Cook gently until the milk powder is a deep, golden brown, breaking up any clumps that may form. Make sure to stir constantly so that it doesn’t burn.
- Once cooked, transfer to a baking tray & leave to cool. If there are any clumps in the milk powder, give it a quick blitz in a jug blender or food processor.
- Transfer to an airtight container or jar & store in a cool, dry place.
