Abstract

A leavened, farinaceous, baked food product having a crust on all sides and a method for producing the product. One embodiment of the leavened, farinaceous, baked food product has a quick bread-like texture and can be stored frozen and later toasted by the consumer without thawing. Alternatively, the product may be stored in a refrigerator and eaten without additional toasting. The product has a thickness and product strength that is suitable for a hand-held food. The product is produced by heating a batter comprising a chemical leavening agent, or a dough comprising a yeast leavening agent or chemical leavening agent or a combination of both, under low pressure in a confined space such that a crust is formed on all sides of the product's exterior.
