- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. Add a few drops of food colouring and give it a stir.
