You can make it as mug cake too. I have been thinking to post this for long time, almost 2 years.
I got tutti frutti during Christmas. Used little for maida cake and thought I should make this one.
Have made this few times couple of years back for Aj, since Aj is allergic to cocoa, he will ask for this one when I make chocolate cake.
Today also he happily finished this one. You can make this for yourself when you are craving for quick dessert, or make it for your kid hungry back from school.
Instructions
- Mix all the dry ingredients – all purpose flour, corn flour, sugar, baking powder, salt in a bowl.
2. In another bowl, mix milk, oil, vanilla. Do not over mix.
3. Add the mixed wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and make a batter.
4. Add tutti frutti and fold gently. I added half in the batter and half on the top.
5. Transfer to a microwave safe bowl/ ramekin/ mug. Microwave in high for a minute.
Easy and super quick microwave single serving vanilla tutti frutti cake! Perfect for evening snack.
Variations
- For variation, you can use raisin or choco chip too. Do not add chocochip on top while microwaving as it may get burnt.
- Add a dash of orange zest or artificial flavor.
- For vegan version, use respective vegan milk substitutions.
Consume within a day as the texture of microwave cake changes drastically.

Notes
- Give some standing time for the cake before eating. Otherwise the vanilla flavour will not be blended.1 minute perfect for my cake, but check the doneness by inserting a toothpick inside the cake.
- Always place the bowl in the side of the microwave plate. This enables even cooking.
- You can add yellow food colouring if you want.

Hi Raji! Cute pics again! A silly doubt 🙂 In the side in sense, is it in the edge of the circular glass plate of the oven?
Raks anand
Yes, I guess - I mean, not in the middle of the glass plate 🙂

Tried this today. Tasted very good. My microwave doesnt have high/med/low controls. I just used a setting for cooking potato (for 1.45mins). Other controls are dinner plate/pizza/popcorn/beverage/frozen veg. Not sure which one to use. Please suggest. However the texture and taste was good. Will it get better if I change other options? TIA
Raks anand
So what would you use if you are boiling milk or water?

I tried it yesterday, and it came our really delicious, thanks for that video it was easy to understand the measurements.. I had tried the chocolate version almost 3 times and failed miserably, but I guess I found out the mistake this time.. I was adding full tbsps instead of just right amount on the spoon.. thank you sooo much Raks you are awesome 🙂
Sriiiii
I use an OTG. Is the baking time different? please clarify.
Jane
Tried this yesterday. Came out very well. Super easy and tasty! Thanks for sharing.
Can you pls let me know shelf life if storing..
Raks anand
Yes sure it will take long time.
Raks anand
two days it will be good I guess. If in fridge can be stored a week. But this is just to make it instantly and finish it off (single serving) 🙂
Jane
Tried this with multigrain atta..with small deviation in measure...milk 5 tbsp and 1 tbsp oil. Came out very soft and was yummy. Thanks!
