The weather had been so bad that I was totally not motivated to clank up the oven. Even the bake chicken we had last night was done by Happycall pan.
Realised I have not bake a cake for awhile so here is the good push for me to do so.I decided to use the air fryer to bake this cake. My first attempt failed as it got deflated after cooled. I think I underbaked it but luckily I didn't have to feed the bin.
The second attempt was a much better one and I baked it longer.
Findings: The cake looks dense but yet it is soft. The almond meal gives the cake a nice fragrance as well.This recipe is definitely a keeper
