Cookie, Biscuit & Muffin Adjustments

• Cookies, biscuits, and muffins are more stable than cakes and need little adjustment at high altitudes.
• If you feel it is necessary, slightly reduce the sugar and baking powder and increase the liquid.
• For cookies, increase oven temperature about 20 degrees and slightly decrease baking time. This will keep your cookies from drying out.
• If you find that muffinlike quick breads and biscuits develop a bitter or alkaline flavor, decrease the baking soda or powder slightly.
• Because cakelike quick breads are more delicate, you may need to follow adjustment guidelines for cakes.
