How do you Beack a cake?

There are many different ways to bake a cake, but there are some basic steps that you will need to follow in order to ensure that your cake turns out perfectly. Here is a simple guide on how to bake a cake:

Step 1: Prepare Baking Pans The first step is to prepare your baking pans. You will want to line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper and then grease the sides of the pan with butter or cooking spray. This will help to prevent your cake from sticking to the pan and making it difficult to remove.

Step 2: Allow Ingredients to Reach Room Temperature It is important that all of your ingredients are at room temperature before you begin baking. This includes things like eggs, butter, milk, and flour. Room temperature ingredients mix together more easily and result in a more consistent texture for your cake. If your ingredients are too cold, they can cause your cake batter to be lumpy. Step 3: Preheat the Oven Before you begin preparing your cake batter, you will need to preheat your oven so that it is nice and hot when you put the cake into cook. Depending on what type of oven you have, it may take up 5-10 minutes for it reach the correct temperature.
