Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your 9×13 inch baking pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. I love the earthy smell that cinnamon gives off as I stir it into the dry mix; it feels like a warm hug for my taste buds. Once everything is mixed well—make sure there are no lumps—we can move on.
