How to Make How To Bake Cakes In Cans Aka Tin Can Cakes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease two small, sturdy tin cans (about 4-6 oz size). Line the bottom of each can with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all cake ingredients (see below). Mix thoroughly until just combined.
- Evenly divide the batter between the prepared tin cans, filling each about ¾ full.
- Place the cans in a baking dish and carefully pour enough hot water into the dish to come halfway up the sides of the cans (this creates a water bath for even baking).
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Carefully remove the cans from the oven and the baking dish. Let cool slightly before removing the cakes from the cans using the parchment paper.
- Serve and enjoy your perfectly portioned, adorable tin can cakes!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
