How to Make Amish Stewed Crackers
- Melt 1/4 cup of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the butter turns a light brown color and has a nutty aroma (about 3-5 minutes). Be careful not to burn it.
- Pour in 1 1/2 cups of milk into the browned butter. Heat through until warm, but do not boil.
- Arrange 8-10 saltine crackers in a shallow bowl or oven-safe dish. Pour the warm milk mixture evenly over the crackers, allowing them to soak for a few minutes until softened.
- (Optional) Fry 1-2 eggs to your liking. Top the stewed crackers with the fried eggs before serving.
- Serve immediately and enjoy this comforting classic!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
