Prep Before You Bake 🧁
One of the easiest ways to make baking less stressful is to practice mise en place, which means having everything measured and prepared before you start mixing. Measure out your flour, sugar, butter, and other ingredients ahead of time, and make sure you have all the tools you need nearby. This helps you stay organized and keeps you from scrambling to find an ingredient halfway through a recipe.
Taking a few extra minutes to prepare can also help prevent mistakes. You are less likely to forget an ingredient or accidentally add the wrong amount when everything is ready to go. Once you start mixing, you can focus on following the recipe and enjoying the baking process instead of stopping every few minutes to measure something. We promise its worth the practice.
