Tips for High Altitude Baking
Here are Tips for High Altitude Baking using KitchenAid Stand Mixer
- If you live in a high altitude (3,000 feet above sea level or above), cakes may tend to fall and give unpredictable results.
- Adjustments may be made in liquids, baking powder, and sugar. Since each recipe is different, one may need to experiment.
- Leavening agents such as baking powder, baking soda, and yeast expand more readily at high altitudes.
