Very Easy Korean Street Food - Egg Bread






We are very lucky to live in a city where there are plenty of ethnic foods, but sometimes it is not possible to taste street foods. I came across Maangchi on Youtube and saw how this Korean street food (Gyeran-ppang) pronounced as 'K run punk' or egg bread is made. My husband says it tastes like a French Toast with an egg in the center. Maangchi uses Mozzarella cheese while I used Havarti cheese because I ran out of Mozzarella. It tastes awesome and it is so easy to make! You can check out Maangchi on Youtube if you are interested in making Korean foods.


Utensils needed:-
One Baking tray
Three 6" x 3" x 2" non-stick loaf pans
One Mixing Bowl
One wire whisk
Measuring cups and spoons
One small heat proof bowl for melting butter
One silicon spatula

Ingredients:-
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch of salt
4 large eggs
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon unsalted butter - melted
1 stick of Havarti cheese (3-1/2" x 1/2" thick) and cut equally into 6 smaller pieces

Method:-

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Place all the dry ingredients - flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in the mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
Crack one egg over the flour mixture, add milk, vanilla extract and melted butter to the flour mixture.
Whisk to combine into a batter.
Place all 3 loaf pans on the baking tray.
Divide batter equally among the loaf pans.
Place 2 pieces of cheese into the batter in each loaf pan; space the cheese pieces out from the middle of each pan so that there is enough space to crack an egg in the middle between the cheeses.
Crack one egg into the batter in each loaf pan, right between the cheeses, in the middle of the loaf pan, so that the egg when cooked, will be in the middle of the loaf.
Gently place the baking tray into the oven.
Bake for 13 - 17 minutes depending on how well done you want the eggs to be. 17 minutes will fully cook the eggs while 13 minutes will give you half boiled eggs.
Remove from the oven. Loosen the breads gently from the loaf pans using a silicon spatula and serve while warm.
Enjoy and have a wonderful breakfast!
