Semolina Almond Raisin Cake / cup cakes

Cake can be baked from different flours this time i tried my hands with semolina/sooji. And believe me guys its better than cake baked with all purpose flour or wheat flour. Semolina imparts crunchy/crispy texture to cake.

 Lets collect ingredients required for baking it.

Ingredients :

2 cup Semolina/Sooji/Rawa
1 cup thick curd
1 cup milk
1+ 1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 tsp ghee/oil
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla essence
3/4 cup of chopped almonds and raisins


Method : Mix together milk , sugar and ghee in one mixing bowl and than add curd and vanilla essence to this mixture. Whisk all wet ingredients well and add semolina in it in 2-3 batches and mix by following cut and fold method. Add chopped dry fruits in batter and baking soda , mix well.

In the meantime pre heat microwave at convection mode only at 180 degree for 10 mins and than pour cake batter in cake tin and bake it at 180 degree for about 35-40 mins depending on setting of microwave.

Check by inserting toothpick in cake if it comes out clean than take out cake.Let it cool down for 5  -10 mins in cake tin and than transfer on wire rack.Once it is completely cool cut it into desired slices and enjoy..

I have baked cupcakes with same batter at 180 degree for 20-25 mins ..

Enjoy yummy cake full of energy of dry fruits.
