Old Country Pan Coat

Old Country Pan Coat

This magical mixture, also known as "cake goop," lets cakes slip from their pan with ease. It's a one-step alternative to buttering and flouring your pans.

1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup all purpose flour

With an electric mixer, beat together oil, shortening, and flour until it forms a smooth mixture. Store in an airtight container in your pantry (or a brush just like this) during cooler months or refrigerator year round for up to a year. Paint a thin coat to grease and flour cake pans, muffin pans, etc in one step. 

Variation for chocolate cakes and brownies, following steps above:

1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup shortening
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup all purpose flour

If stored in the refrigerator, bring to room temperature before use.

Variation for sweet crust, following steps above:

1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup granulated white sugar

@Carla it makes a little more, depending on how much air you beat into it! 1/3 c each might be closer to filling it exactly

Does the amt yielded from the old country pan coat recipe all fit in Amazon bottle brush container? 1/2 c x 3=12 oz but container 6.76 oz I think.

@Rhonda and @Marinell yes! We’ll be making a one piece pan in the coming months!
