This is not really a sentence. It has a passive verb phrase an actor but no non-actor or subject.

Passive sentences usually require a verb that takes an object - a transitive verb. So I would say bake is a transitive verb.

Some verbs can be both transitive or non transitive.

The bread was baked by mother.

There is no direct object in the sentence. That makes the verb intransitive. By mother is a prepositional phrase.
