Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the cooking temperature is optimal when you put the dish in.
Step 2: Prepare the Baking Dish
Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking. Set aside.
Step 3: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
Step 4: Prepare Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, mix your wet ingredients: eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Beat them together until smooth.
Step 5: Combine Ingredients
Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
Step 6: Pour into Baking Dish
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7: Bake
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8: Cool Before Serving
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing or serving.
