Yes, a microwave oven can be used to make cakes.
Here are the simple steps to make a cake in the microwave:
Materials Required:
3 eggs. 1 cup flour.
1 cup sugar. 1/2 cup milk.
1/2 cup cooking oil.
1 teaspoon baking powder.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Steps:
1. Crack the eggs into a large bowl, add sugar, and stir well with a whisk or blender.
2. Add milk and cooking oil and stir again.
3. Sift the flour and baking powder and add them to the egg mixture, stirring well until there are no flour particles.
4. Add vanilla extract and stir well.
5. Pour the cake batter into a microwave-safe container, making sure there is some space in the container to prevent the cake from swelling and overflowing.
6. Put the container in the microwave oven, select medium-high heat, and the microwave oven time is about 5 minutes.
7. Every 1 minute, turn on the microwave oven to check the doneness of the cake. You can use a toothpick to insert it into the center of the cake, and if the toothpick does not stick to the cake batter after insertion, it means that the cake is cooked through.
8. Take out the cake and let it cool before serving.
Please note that the cooking time may vary depending on the power of the microwave. Therefore, adjust the cooking time according to your microwave power to ensure that the cake is cooked through without over-burning. In addition, cakes made in the microwave may be moister and have a slightly different texture than cakes made in a conventional oven.
