Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 4
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 5
Slowly pour in the hot water and stir until the batter is smooth and slightly thin. This step helps create a moist texture.
