Batter is a flour mixture with liquid and other ingredients such as sugar, salt, egg, milk and leavening used for cooking. Batters are a pourable consistency that cannot be kneaded.[1] [2] Batter is most often used for pancakes and as a coating for fried foods. It is also used for a variety of batter breads.
The word batter comes from the French word battre, which means to beat,[3] as many batters require vigorous beating or whisking in their preparation.
