Scrummy Apple-Muesli Cake

I'd have to agree that the most scrumptious cakes are the homemade ones by my mom. Baking is one of her favourite past times and relishing freshly baked cakes,straight from the oven with all the family members is one of my fondest memories.

Here is one such recipe which is easy and healthy at the same time. Nutritious because it has muesli which is rich in fibre and helps lessen cholesterol. The use of apple makes the cake moist, due to which less amount of oil or butter can be used.

The Ingredients are:-

1 cup all purpose flour
1 egg
1 apple ,peeled and grated
3 tbsp milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or refined oil
4 tbsp plain or flavored muesli
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla essence or cinnamon powder

Method:-

Cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Whisk the egg and add it to the mixture. In a separate bowl, sift flour,baking powder,cocoa powder. Fold into the butter+sugar+ egg mixture and beat well.Add the milk and grated apple along with the essence and muesli.

Spray the baking pan or grease it lightly with butter and dust it with some flour. Pour the mixture into the tin. Garnish with muesli all over(I used the strawberry flavor) and bake for about an hour till the toothpick comes out unscratched. I microwaved it at high for 6 minutes.Let it cool down.

Your scrummy cake is ready to serve.Have enough stock as your guests are sure to keep asking for seconds.
