Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat and Prepare

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be lumpy but cohesive.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares and serving.
