Here’s a healthy version of cake. No maida, no sugar and no guilt!!
Dry ingredients:
- Quick Oats – 3 cups
- Cocoa Powder – 1 cup
- Baking Powder – 1/2 teaspoon
- Baking soda – 1/4 teaspoon
- Cinnamon powder – 1/4 teaspoon
I used Quick Oats. Rolled Oats would work as well. The cinnamon powder is optional. Mix the above dry ingredients evenly.
Wet Ingredients:
- Melted butter (unsalted) – 2 cubes
- Honey – 1/2 cup or as sweet as you prefer
- Egg – 1 (whisked)
- Milk – 1 cup
- Vanilla extract – 1/4 teaspoon
Mix the above wet ingredients. Add the dry ingredients and combine to form a homogenous mixture.
Smear the cake pan with butter. Dust with Oats powder. Another easier way to avoid preparing oats powder is to just save some dry ingredient that we just prepared and sprinkle the same onto the cake pan. Remove the excess.
Transfer the mixed batter into a cake pan. Tap it a few times. Place it on low rack.
Pre heat microwave at 180 degree Centigrade. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown or until it is completely cooked. Insert a toothpick and it should come out clear without any batter sticking to it.
Make sure to cool it on the rack for about 15 minutes before serving.
