  4. Gently fold in the teaspoon of baking powder and the 1 cup of packed light ingredient, ensuring no large lumps remain.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden.
