Not sure your baking powder still works? Drop 1 tsp into 1/3 cup hot water; if it bubbles vigorously, it may still have enough potency for baking

Over time, baking powder can lose its effectiveness due to exposure to moisture, ultimately affecting the rise of your baked goods. To check its potency, conduct a simple test with hot water; a vigorous bubbling confirms it’s still good, while minimal activity means it's time to replace it. Store your baking powder in a cool, dry place for optimal longevity and regularly check its effectiveness to ensure delicious baking outcomes.
