Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

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

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Prepare Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract (if using). Mix until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Flavoring

  1. 5

    Choose Your Flavor

    Now you can choose 2 flavor options from the list provided. If you choose cocoa powder, fold it into the batter. If using berries or nuts, gently fold them in as well.

Baking

  1. 6

    Prepare the Baking Pan

    Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

  2. 7

    Pour Batter and Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  3. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
