Equipment
- 1 Mixing Bowl
- 1 Whisk or Electric Hand Mixer
- Measurement cups and spoons
Ingredients
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Water
Instructions
- Add the egg and one tablespoon of water to a small mixing bowl.
- Whisk vigorously until well incorporated and thin enough to spread smoothly onto baked goods.
- Add a little more water to thin it out until it becomes thin enough to apply with a pastry brush onto baked goods before baking them. (Note: This step is optional. Perform if the consistency of the mixture is not thin enough)
Notes
Ensure the egg wash has a fluid consistency before applying it to the baked dish. The finished product may seem blotchy if yolk clumps are not completely blended with the white.
