Equipment
- OTG

- silicone muffn moulds
- 240 ml measuing cups and spoons set
Ingredients
- 1½ cup all purpose flour (160 grams)
- ½ cup homemade custard powder (reccipe link shred in notes #1 below)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup + 2 tablespoon caster sugar (125 grams)
- 100 ml oil
- ⅔ cup whole milk (160 ml)
- 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice
- ½ cup tutti frutti or any candied fruit (100 grams)
- few drops ossoro vanilla custard essence or ½ teaspoon vanilla essence
Instructions
- Preheat oven @180° C (350 F) for 10 minutes with both filaments on.
- If you're not using silicone moulds line the muffin tray with liners. If you dont have liners just grease the tray with butter or oil.
- In a mixing bowl place the sift and add in the flour, custard powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Sieve them together.
- To the dry ingredients mixture add in the sugar, vanilla essence, oil, milk and vinegar.
- Fold the mixture together and make a batter.
- Add in the tutti frutti and give a gentle quick mix. Do not over mix the batter. You may coat it in little flour. This will prevent the tutti frutti from sinking at the bottom.
- Scoop the batter into the muffin mould till ¾th of the cavity.
- Sprinkle some tutti frutti over the muffins.
- Bake at a preheated oven @180° C (350 F) for 20 minutes. A toothpick or skewer inserted should come out clean. (I bake with both the filaments on).
- Remove from the oven and transfer onto a cooling rack. Let it stand for 5-10 minutes.
- Demould and allow to cool down completely before serving.

Notes
- I have used homemade custard powder which has sugar and milk powder. If you are using the vegan version of my homemade custard powder or store bought custard powder you may need to increase the sugar a little bit if you like sweet cakes.
- You can use ½ cup butter instead of oil or use 50-50 ratio of oil and butter.
- You may make this cake with egg. Use 2 eggs and omit the baking soda and vinegar from the recipe.
- If you don't want to use vinegar, you can use ½ cup curd/yogurt and adjust the consistency of the batter using milk.
- Baking time will differ depending upon your oven temperature settings because each oven reacts differently.
