Ingredients
How to make the cake in a pressure cooker?
Here , I have baked the cake in an oven, but you can also make it in a pressure cooker.
Yes, you heard it right!
Firstly, grease a baking pan with butter or oil.
Once greased, sprinkle it with some flour. Make sure you coat the baking pan well, by moving the pan around.
Once you have coated your pan well, pour the cake batter into the pan and tap it lightly on the counter so that the batter levels up and the air bubbles escape.
Top it with your favourite topping and keep it aside.
Now, add a stand in the pressure cooker and turn on the flame and let it heat for about 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, place the baking pan on the stand, cover the lid and cook on low flame for about 25 minutes.
Remove the whistle, so that the cake can slow cook with the heat.
Open the lid, insert a toothpick and if it comes out clean, your cake is ready.
If not, then close the lid and let it cook for 5 minutes more.
Once it is cooked, let it cool down for 10 to 15 minutes.
Now, run the knife around the corner, turn it around and cake will come out. Let it cool completely and serve.
