How to make cake with an electric rice cooker

Electric rice cookers can make cakes with simple operation and no need for ovens. When making, it is necessary to prepare basic materials such as low gluten flour, eggs, milk, white sugar, edible oil, etc., through steps such as whipping egg white, mixing batter, and baking in a rice cooker. The key to making cakes with an electric rice cooker is to beat the egg whites and control the temperature. After separating the egg white from the egg yolk, the egg white should be whipped in a clean container until it becomes hard and foamy, preferably with straight and pointed edges. Mix egg yolk with milk and cooking oil, sieve in low gluten flour, and stir until there are no particles. Mix the beaten egg whites into the egg yolk paste in batches, using cutting and mixing techniques to avoid defoaming. Brush a thin layer of oil on the inner pot of the rice cooker, preheat it, pour in batter, gently shake to remove bubbles, select cake function or cooking mode, and cover the air outlet with a damp cloth. After about 40 minutes, use a toothpick to test the maturity level, then invert and let it cool before demolding. If the rice cooker does not have a cake function, you can use the cooking button to repeat the heating process. After the first trip, keep warm for 10 minutes and press the cooking button again. The whole process takes about 50 minutes. Note that the power of different rice cookers varies greatly, and it is necessary to observe the expansion state of the cake and adjust the time. Avoid frequent lid opening that may cause a sudden drop in temperature, as the cake may collapse and shrink. When the inner liner coating is damaged, it is recommended to use baking paper to prevent sticking, and the total amount of batter should not exceed 70% full of the inner liner.

Rice cooker cakes are suitable for easy baking at home. It is recommended to use fresh eggs for easier whipping and avoid excessive defoaming during the mixing process. Ensure complete cooling before demolding, can be paired with fruit or cream to enhance taste. Pay attention to controlling the ratio of sugar to oil, and diabetes patients can choose sugar substitutes. Clean the rice cooker in a timely manner after use to avoid residual batter from coking and affecting subsequent cooking.
