  • 1 tablespoon flour

Step-by-Step Instructions for Making a No Oven Cake

Step 1: Prepare the Cooking Equipment

  1. If using a stovetop or pressure cooker, place a trivet or metal ring at the base to elevate the cake pan. Preheat the setup over medium heat for 10 minutes.
  2. For a steamer, fill it with water just below the steaming rack and preheat over medium heat.

Step 2: Prepare the Cake Pan

  1. Grease a 7-inch cake pan with butter or oil, then dust it with flour to prevent sticking.
  2. Alternatively, line the pan with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 3: Combine the Dry Ingredients

  1. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder (if using).
  2. Mix well to ensure even distribution.

Step 4: Cream the Butter and Sugar

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for achieving a soft cake texture.
  2. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Step 5: Add Milk and Vanilla

  1. Gradually mix in the milk and vanilla extract, ensuring a smooth consistency.
  2. If using optional add-ins like coffee powder, mix them at this stage.

Step 6: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

  1. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture in three parts, folding gently with a spatula.
  2. Avoid overmixing to maintain the batter’s airy texture.
  3. If desired, fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruits.
