In reply to Rachel. The recipe makes 3 cups of batter, so you can use it to make one 9 inch cake. It won't be super thick. I would check the baking time starting at 18 minutes, then add 2 more minutes until the center is set and a cake tester comes out cleanly. I haven't made this in this size pan, so this is my best guess based on the info I have. Enjoy!

Hi! If I wanted to make this as a single cake (no layers) in a 9 inch cake pan, could you advise on baking time? And would I use the same quantities as original recipe? Thank you

In reply to David. Hi- I'm sorry, it's hard to guess on that without retesting it again. You could try 1.5x the recipe.

Hi I only have two 7 inch pans, so that the cake isn’t too flat should increase the ingredient volumes, and by how much would you recommend? Thank you

In reply to Jo. Yes, it will impact the recipe. I have tested it the way it's written and that's how I know it works well. To make it with all purpose flour, you may need more flour to ensure that it's not mushy. I hope that helps!

Hi, can I swap the wholewheat flour for regular white plain flour? Will it impact the recipe. Thanks
