hey lovely ppl out there… pls help me. ive made cakes only in microwave n they always turn out gud. will b baking cake tomorrow for FIRST time in a baking oven and i have no idea how to…
i have a max 300 temp but i dunno how long (minutes) shud i bake cake if i preheat in 300 temp.. or 250 temp
also pls tell me how long its supposed to b pre heated…?? 15 mins???
well usually its mentioned in the recipe for how long to bake and at what temp. normally it is around 350 F(175 C) and backing time around 20-25 min. u can tell when yur cake is done, u will be able to smell it also u can see through the galss door how cake looks. i preheat oven for about 10 min, some oven beeps when they get to the required temp.
i hope this helps .
btw i would love to know how u bake in microwave , will experiment it sometime.
87 views and just 2 replies.. thanks both of u. i tried the cake and am sooooooooo sad to report that it had the same texture like i make in microwave... it didnt look like cake from any angle. it was like a halwa (like made in microwave) but the taste was gud. i dunno wot went wrong... i followed brownie cake recipe... cud it b that? but wot difference dus it make cus i noticed both kinda cakes have similar ingredients. i pre heated for 15 mins.. it was nice from top but underneath the first layer it was halwa type.. not like crumbly cake type.. where did i go wrong??
(I put cups two times to make a bigger cake)
1/3 & 1/3 oil
2/3 & 2/3 sugar
2/3 & 2/3 milk
flour (i dun remember how mch.. it was either 1/3 or 2/3)
4 teaspoon bakin pwder
4 egss (3 normal & one small)
u know wot it seemed like it had baked.. cus the upper layer was having lil patches of blck circles.. so i thot its done... i think it baked for 20 mins or more i guess... but then again i took it out cus of the circles
arghhhhhhhhh i dunno whether it was C of F :( either of the two.. @Vari... noted wot??? wot do u think i did wrong.. and sara... where art thouuuu??? did u read my recipe.. anything rong with it?
C or F can make a big difference in the recipe. If 300 is max on your oven then it is C. I am pretty sure.
yeah it was 300 max but as i said the upper later had lil blck spots so i assumed if i bake further it will burn all over.. to my dismay, the inside was like a halwa :(
