Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Preparation
Gather all necessary ingredients and tools. Ensure your workspace is clean and organized.
Step 2: Mixing Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients first. Then, in a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients until well combined.
Step 3: Combining Mixtures
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry mixture. Stir gently until just combined to avoid overmixing.
Step 4: Preheating the Oven
Preheat your oven to the required temperature. Ensure it’s fully heated before placing your dish inside.
Step 5: Pouring into Baking Dish
Pour the combined mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6: Baking
Place the baking dish in the oven and set a timer according to the recommended baking time. Check for doneness with a toothpick.
Step 7: Cooling
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the dish for a few minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8: Serving
Once cool, slice into portions and serve as desired.
