Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the cake will bake evenly.

  2. 2

    Prepare Baking Pan

    Grease and flour a large baking pan (or multiple smaller pans) to prevent sticking.

Mixing Ingredients

  1. 3

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 4

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

  3. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Baking

  1. 6

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If desired, fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruits into the batter for added flavor and texture.

  2. 7

    Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cooling and Serving

  1. 8

    Cool the Cake

    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Once cooled, slice the cake and serve. Enjoy your delicious creation!
