Method

  4. Combine the flour and cinnamon. Add this mixture in a slow, steady stream, stirring constantly until smooth and lump-free. Do not over-mix, or it will become tough.
  5. Transfer the batter to a greased baking pan. Tap the pan on the table after pouring the batter to assist remove air bubbles and set the batter in the baking pan, making it easier to remove after baking.
