Baking help needed... in the middle of the cake now.. ;-(

[Dar]

Well its not really help with baking...

I have a bunt pan and I have another pan that looks like the bunt pan I think its an angle food cake pan..

Its round.. has the center hole like the bunt pan does... but that pat comes out, kinda like a spring form pan would.. I hope I am making sense...

Can I use the angle food cake pan with a normal cake batter?.. or is that a thicker batter?

Yes you can just make sureto grese and flour the middle tube so it does not stick.

Yes but you'll have to adjust your baking time since it'll be a higher cake than if you used a 9"x12".

thanks...

**stupid question alert**
How come the batter will not run through the cracks at the bottom?.. I understand how whis works with a spring form pan.. because the the graham cracker crust

the center tube and the base are all connected with mine so you can take the cake out and leave the ring from the sides...

Exactly.

You might also want to be careful that the sides don't get too dark. Angel food pans are usually thinner aluminum, and transfer the heat faster.

Angel food cake is made with whipped egg whites so it is stiff and doesn't run out the bottom. A regular cake batter might leak out a little, so make sure you set it on a cookie sheet. If it is an older pan, make sure it is a tight seal and not warped. When you use a springboard pan sometimes batters will leak on those as well, if you do not have a crust.

Imp- Do not try to bake angelfood in a bundt pan. You will be eating it out of the pan.

Imp- Yup, non stick does not work on Angelfood.
