Buttermilk

Dairy

Buttermilk is a tangy, low-fat dairy product with a refreshing taste, either a byproduct of butter churning or made by fermenting skimmed milk. Its acidity reacts well with leavening agents, resulting in exceptionally tender baked goods.

Buttermilk is used in recipes such as "Bananen-Muffins", "Cookies", and "Kokosflockenkuchen". It is frequently combined with eggs, sugar, plain flour, butter, and bicarbonate of soda, highlighting its key role as a moistening and acidifying ingredient in baked goods.

Vegan substitutes
