Banana Cake (Vegetarian) in Pressure Cooker

I am sharing a vegetarian banana cake recipe baked in pressure cooker and this is a tasty, soft, moist cake with delicious flavour. I followed this recipe on the net. We require ripe bananas in this recipe and the dash of cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla gives this cake that mouth-watering flavour.

 

Ingredients

Bananas – 2 ripened

Wheat Flour – 1 and ½ cup

Sugar – ½ cup

Oil – ½ cup

Milk – ½ cup

Salt – ½ teaspoon

Baking Powder – 1 teaspoon

Baking Soda – ½ teaspoon

Cinnamon Powder – ½ teaspoon

Nutmeg powder – ¼ teaspoon

Vanilla extract – ½ teaspoon

Method

Sieve together wheat flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda and set aside. Blend the bananas and sugar in a mixer. Now take the banana and sugar mixture in a bowl and add oil to it and mix well. Add the sifted wheat flour to this mixture gradually and fold in well. Finally add the milk and mix well. Preheat the pressure cooker and keep a separator in it. Grease the cake pan and pour the cake batter, keep it in the pre heated pressure cooker and cover with the lid (without the whistle) and bake on a medium flame for about 35-40 minutes. Insert a knife in the centre of the cake to check if the cake is done, the knife should come out clean surface, meaning the cake is done well.

MyMusingsSangSpeak-Pet Puja - Eggless Carrot Cake (Pressure Cooker)

Eggless Carrot Cake

I made this easy eggless carrot cake by following recipe on the net. I tried eggless cake for the first time and it did turn out very good. Generally, I bake most of my cakes in the pressure cooker. I have made a few changes in the original recipe. Here comes my recipe for eggless carrot cooker cake.

Ingredients

Refined Oil – ½ cup

Sugar (powdered) – ¾ cup

Milk- ½ cup

Carrot (grated) – 1 cup

Refined Flour (Maida) – 1½ cup

Baking Powder – 1 teaspoon

Baking Soda – ½ teaspoon

Cinnamon Powder – 1 teaspoon

Nutmeg Powder – ¼ teaspoon

Salt - ¼ teaspoon

Vanilla Essence - ½ teaspoon

Method

Mix all the dry ingredients- flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder, nutmeg powder and salt well and set aside. Keep the pressure cooker on low flame for pre-heating. Grease a cake tin and spray well lightly with flour. Mix sugar and oil well. Add the dry ingredients mixture in the sugar oil mixture and beat well. Add grated carrot, vanilla essence and milk and mix well. Transfer to the prepared cake tin. Place it in the pre-heated pressure cooker with a separator, place the lid (you may use the rubber gasket or do without it too). Bake for about 35 minutes on low flame. Do the knife taste by inserting a clean knife in the centre of the cake, if it comes out clean, means cake is done. If the mixture sticks to the knife allow 5 more minutes for baking.

Note – If you want to bake in electric oven, pre-heat the oven for 10 minutes at 180 degrees C. Bake the cake for 30 minutes at 180 degrees C
