Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

Gather all the necessary ingredients and ensure they are measured and ready to use. This will streamline the cooking process.

Step 2: Preheat the Oven

Set your oven to the required temperature. Preheating is essential for even cooking.

Step 3: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. Whisk together until thoroughly blended to ensure an even distribution of flavors.

Step 4: Combine Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, blend all the wet ingredients. Stir well to combine and achieve a smooth consistency.

Step 5: Incorporate Mixtures

Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, taking care not to overmix.

Step 6: Prepare the Baking Dish

Grease and flour the baking dish or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 7: Pour Batter into the Dish

Carefully pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8: Bake

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for the recommended time. Monitor closely to avoid overbaking.

Step 9: Check for Doneness

Use a toothpick to test for doneness by inserting it into the center. If it comes out clean, the dish is ready.

Allow the baked dish to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
