The batter for this recipe is on the thicker side, so make sure to carefully combine the liquid and the dry ingredients well, without over mixing. Do your best to ensure minimal clumps if you can. We don't suggest adding any extra liquid because it can make the loaf quite dense. This recipe is perfectly fluffy, cake-y, and moist, and comes out amazing as is! So don't be tempted to change it because the batter is slightly thick.
