EGGLESS CAKE BASICS SUCCESS TIPS
Measure the ingredients correctly. I highly recommend using a kitchen scale.
Preheat the oven at least 15 minutes before getting started to give it plenty of time to reach the ideal recipe temperature.
Donāt overmix the batter. Instead, mix just until youāve evenly distributed the ingredients throughout the batter.
Bake the batter as soon as it is ready.Ā
Don’t open the oven door until your baked good has set. Leave the oven closed until the minimum time stated in the recipe.
Every oven is different, so baking times always have to be taken with a grain of salt. Oven thermostats can be wildly off, and that will all affect baking time, so keep an eye on yours.
