Why do cakes have a cracked thick crust in my Westinghouse Kitchen Appliance?
- Yyvette01Sep 9, 2025
A cracked, thick crust on cakes baked in your Westinghouse Kitchen Appliance can be due to several factors. The baking temperature might be too high, so lower it. Check if the food is positioned too low in the oven and, if so, cook it one shelf higher. Overmixing the cake batter can also contribute, so mix just long enough to combine the ingredients. Ensure that the baking tin isn't too deep, and use the recommended size. Dark baking tins can also cause this, so switch to shiny, light tins.
