About

Baking cake in a pressure cooker is a hassle-free method, especially for those who don't have an oven. The cake turns out just as moist and fluffy, making it a win-win situation! Because you're using a pressure cooker, the heat is evenly circulated, which lead to even baking. This method is common in Indian households where ovens are not a staple kitchen appliance.
