No denying the facts: high altitude + regular (aka “sea level”) recipe = one crumbly, dry cake. It’s all about air pressure. The higher up you go, the less air pressure, so the faster water evaporates, and the faster things bake. Make adjustments to the leavening, flour, liquid, sugar, oven temperature and baking time and you should have a delicious, made-by-you cake to share.Here's the recipe:
