Notes

Pro Tips:

  • Fluffy Cake: Use room-temperature egg.

  • Vegan Option: Substitute with a flax egg (1 tbsp flax + 2.5 tbsp water).

  • Flavor Boost: Add cinnamon or cocoa powder.

Common Mistakes to Avoid:

  • Overmixing (leads to dense cake).

  • Overcooking (check at 60 seconds).

  • Skipping the pinch of salt (balances sweetness).

Storage Instructions:

  • Best eaten fresh. Store leftovers covered in the fridge for 1 day. Reheat for 10-15 seconds.
