Equipment

  • Convection Microwave Oven
  • Electric Hand Beater

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1/2 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/3 cup Sunflower oil
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/3 cup Milk
  • 1/2 cup chopped dried fruits & nuts Walnuts, Cashew, Almonds, Raisins

Instructions

  • Mix the dry ingredients and sieve them at least once in order to get rid of any lumps
  • In a separate bowl, preferably of a bigger size, whisk the eggs till loose and fluffy.
  • Add Sugar to the eggs and beat till the sugar has dissolved completely.
  • Now add oil and whisk for a couple of seconds.
  • Meanwhile, pre-heat your oven at 180°C. Prepare the non-stick cake tin by greasing and then dusting with flour.
  • Add 1/3rd of the dry ingredients to the eggs mix and add half of the milk. Whisk it at low speed till everything is just mixed.
  • Now, add rest of the dry ingredients, chopped nuts and milk. Take a silicon spatula and mix it gently till everything is just incorporated.
  • Pour the batter in the cake tin. Top it with chopped walnuts.
  • Bake it for around 30-35 minutes. Once done, you will see that the cake has shrunk a bit from the edges and the skewer put right in the centre comes out clean.
