EASY PRESSURE COOKER CAKE

Easy Pressure Cooker Cake

Ingredients

• Flour-1 Cup
• Egg-1 Cup (Here I Used 5 Eggs; It Depends on the Size of Your Cup Used)
• Sugar-1 Cup
• Dalda-1 Cup
• Vanilla Essence-1 Teaspoon
• Baking Powder-1 Teaspoon
• Salt-A Pinch
• Nuts and raisins-few

Method

First method

STEP-1

Blend all ingredients (flour, sugar, egg, dalda, baking powder, vanilla essence and salt) in a blender. 

Stir in nuts and raisins.

STEP-2

Place the pressure cooker on medium heat, and heat it for about 5 minutes.

STEP-3

Place a piece of parchment paper inside of the pressure cooker and slowly pour the batter directly into it.

STEP-4

Then, cover the pressure cooker without whistle and reduce the heat to medium-low.

STEP-5

Cook the cake for 50-60 minutes. After the 40 minutes, take a toothpick and stick it into the cake to see if it's fully cooked. If the toothpick comes out dry, the cake is ready. If the toothpick comes out wet, leave the cake in the cooker for another 5 minutes. Then check again.

Keep in mind that cook time is reduced when using a pressure cooker, depending on the size of your cake pan and pressure cooker.

STEP-6

Turn off the heat and uncover the cooker. Then, leave the cake in the pressure cooker for about 5 minutes. After five minutes, cover your cooker with a plate and flip.

 Second method

STEP-1

Blend all ingredients (flour, sugar, egg, dalda, baking powder, vanilla essence and salt) in a blender without nuts and raisins.

Mix nuts and raisins.

STEP-2

 Remove whistle and the gasket on the lid of your pressure cooker.

STEP-3

My pressure cooker came with a stand that goes at the bottom of the cooker pan. It distributes heat more evenly.

Preheat the pressure cooker with that stand by placing the cooker lid. (For 2 minutes in high flame)

STEP-4

Grease a tin.

Pour the batter into the greased tin. 

Once the cake batter is in the tin, tap the sides of the tin to eliminate air bubbles.

Then carefully place the cake batter in.

Close the lid.

STEP-5

Cook on medium heat for 5 minutes and then lower the flame to just a simmer.

Cook the cake for 50-60 minutes. After the 40 minutes, take a toothpick and stick it into the cake to see if it's fully cooked. If the toothpick comes out dry, the cake is ready. If the toothpick comes out wet, leave the cake in the cooker for another 5 minutes. Then check again.

Keep in mind that cook time is reduced when using a pressure cooker, depending on the size of your cake pan and pressure cooker.

STEP-6

Turn off the heat and uncover the cooker. Then, leave the cake in the pressure cooker for about 5 minutes. After five minutes, cover your cooker with a plate and flip.
