Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's hot and ready for baking.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

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

  5. 5

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If desired, fold in chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or fresh berries at this point.

Baking

  1. 6

    Prepare Baking Pan

    Grease a baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

  2. 7

    Pour Batter

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

  3. 8

    Bake

    Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  4. 9

    Cool

    Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
