Any Home Bakers Here?

A lot of the recipes are old and were written for people mixing the batters by hand. With the new powerful mixers, there is no need to "add eggs one at a time until well mixed". Other than the creaming part (not even that step sometimes) and beating in the eggs, I add everything else all at once and have been doing so for a very long time.

There is one particular cake recipe that my mother would make by adding all the ingredients other than the topping ingredients into a pan and beat it up with her hand mixer. No one ever complained about how that cake would come out.

Honestly, I rarely do the steps one at a time even beating by hand. Until I got my new oven, I never preheated either.

My mother could bake like nobody else. I try to do justice to her legacy and as a nod to her ability I humbly present my lattice top cherry pie. Hubby will be taking to family dinner tomorrow. I will not be able to go with, but promised a dessert before I knew I would miss it.

Beautiful pie Becca!

Thank you! I like to add a drained jar of Maraschino cherries and some almond extract to get that real texture and flavor pop
