It involves combining ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs, and leavening agents like yeast or baking powder to create a wide array of baked goods, including bread, cakes, pastries, and cookies. The origin of baking dates back thousands of years, with evidence of early baking practices found in ancient civilizations such as the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans.
