Baking Lemon Cake with a Pressure Cooker


Over the last weekend, I’ve experimented on baking. So far, so good. Beginner baking can be pretty easy with just two things, a mixer and a pressure cooker. Ovens still scare me a little. (Unevenly cooked mush -_-) Pressure cookers are great even if you don’t see what’s going on inside, it comes out perfectly baked.



Got good feedback on this cake, so I figured I would share the recipe.

A post shared by Weekends Forever (@weekends.forever) on

Ingredients:

Cake
250 Grams of softened butter (room temperature)
1 1/3 Cup of sugar
2 Cups of self raising flour
4 Eggs
1/2 Teaspoon of baking powder
1 to 2 Tablespoons squeezed lemon juice (Depends on how zesty you want it to be. I prefer in between)
1/2 Cup of milk
1/4 Cup vegetable oil (To moisten cake. Cake is already moist with the above ingredients. I prefer it a bit more moist)

Frosting
250 Grams of softened butter (room temperature)
1 1/2 Cups confectionery sugar (sifted)
1 teaspoon lemon flavor
1 teaspoon vanilla flavor


What to do:

Cake
Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl using mixer. Brush container in pressure cooker with butter or vegetable oil before putting the mix in. Press “Cake” on your pressure cooker and wait for the magic. Once done, cool cake down to room temperature.

Frosting
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl using a mixer until your preferred texture is achieved.

Final steps
[Watch video above] Cut cake in the middle(horizontal -_-) and spread some frosting in the middle. Place the upper part of the cake back and spread frosting around the entire cake.


Happy eating!
