For the Liver Bites

Instructions

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Pro tip: Using parchment paper will prevent the liver bites from sticking and make cleanup easier.

2

Prepare the Liver

Rinse the beef liver under cold water to remove any impurities, then pat it dry with paper towels.

Pro tip: Ensure the liver is thoroughly dried to help it sear better.

3

Blend the Ingredients

Cut the liver into smaller pieces and place them in a blender or food processor. Add the beaten eggs and blend until smooth.

Pro tip: Ensure there are no chunks left in the mixture for even cooking.

4

Combine with Flour

Transfer the liver mixture into a bowl and gradually mix in the whole wheat flour until a thick batter forms.

Pro tip: The batter should be thick enough to hold its shape when spooned onto the baking sheet.

5

Spoon onto Baking Sheet

Spoon tablespoon-sized portions of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.

Pro tip: Use a small cookie scoop for uniform sizes.

6

Bake the Liver Bites

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until firm and slightly browned. Allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.

Pro tip: Adjust baking time depending on the size of your bites for desired firmness.
