Mixing eggs with avocado creates a unique and delicious cake that’s sure to surprise and delight you. This avocado cake recipe is easy to follow and results in a moist, flavorful cake that will become a favorite in your home. Follow these steps to create this amazing dessert.
Ingredients:
- 1 avocado, diced
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cups wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- Butter (for greasing the pan)
- Additional flour (for dusting the pan)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Avocado and Eggs:
- Start by peeling and dicing one ripe avocado. Avocados add a rich, creamy texture to the cake, making it moist and flavorful.
- Place the diced avocado in a large bowl.
- Crack four eggs into the bowl with the avocado. The eggs provide structure and richness to the cake.
- Blend the Wet Ingredients:
- Transfer the avocado and eggs to a blender.
- Add 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of butter to the blender. The milk and butter add moisture and richness, while the sugar sweetens the cake.
- Close the blender and pulse for about three minutes, until the mixture is smooth and well combined. This step ensures that the avocado is fully incorporated into the batter, creating a uniform texture.
- Combine with Dry Ingredients:
- Pour the blended mixture into a large mixing bowl.
- Gradually add 2 cups of wheat flour to the bowl, mixing well after each addition. The flour gives the cake structure and helps it rise.
- Stir the batter thoroughly to ensure that all the flour is fully incorporated and there are no lumps.
- Add Baking Powder:
- Add 1 tablespoon of baking powder to the batter. The baking powder helps the cake rise, making it light and fluffy.
- Mix the batter again until the baking powder is evenly distributed.
- Prepare the Baking Pan:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Grease a baking pan with butter to prevent the cake from sticking.
- Dust the greased pan with a light coating of wheat flour. This extra step ensures the cake will release easily from the pan after baking.
- Bake the Cake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly, ensuring a uniform thickness.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes. The cake should rise and develop a golden-brown crust.
- To check if the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. If not, bake for a few more minutes and check again.
- Cool and Serve:
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes.
- Carefully remove the cake from the pan and place it on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice and serve the cake as a delicious dessert or snack.
Tips and Variations:
- Add-ins: Enhance the flavor by adding chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit to the batter before baking.
- Frosting: Top the cake with a cream cheese frosting or a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and lemon juice for added sweetness.
- Spices: Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for a warm, spiced flavor.
