Cake Mix Quick Bread Recipe Tips
- The batter is stiff. It’s helpful to use a large cookie scoop to fill the loaf pans.
- I used my electric mixer with the whip attachment to mix up the streusel. It worked beautifully. It took a good minute to completely combine the ingredients…so be patient!
- This cake mix recipe can be made into muffins or a coffee cake (baked in an 8 inch square pan.) Baking times will need to be adjusted so watch carefully at the end.Â
- When baking with mini loaf pans, put them on a cookie sheet before placing them in the oven.Â
- My mini loaf pans measure 3.5 in. x 5 in. x 2.25 in. I got four loaves and divided the batter as evenly as I could.Â
