Step 1: Prep the Ingredients

Gather all the necessary ingredients and ensure that they are measured out accurately. This will save time during the cooking process.

Step 2: Preheat the Oven

Set your oven to the required temperature as per your recipe. Allow it to preheat fully before placing any items inside for cooking.

Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. Use a whisk to mix them evenly, ensuring no lumps remain.

Step 4: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, combine all the wet ingredients. Beat them together until well blended.

Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl with dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixtures together until just combined. Do not over mix.

Step 6: Prepare the Baking Dish

Grease the baking dish with butter or non-stick spray. This will prevent sticking and ensure an easier cleanup.

Step 7: Transfer to Baking Dish

Pour the combined batter into the prepared baking dish. Spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8: Bake

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for the specified time, keeping an eye on it to avoid overbaking.

Step 9: Check for Doneness

Insert a toothpick into the center of the dish. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, the dish is done.

Step 10: Cool Before Serving

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes. Afterward, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
