When it comes to baking i am eager to try whatever i can . Somehow baking is like knitting or any handwork . It relieves stress and the moment we get into the kitchen it seems we are a full fledged professional and looking into small things , careful mixing and working like a bee every time is a fun not to be missed. The result, with kids entering the kitchen and peeping in the oven and we too like kids waiting eagerly for the  outcome is  a joyful time. This weekend i wanted to try  this recipe which is from Sharmis passion . She had used Jaggery and whole wheat flour. As i am a  fitness and health conscious one   i wanted to try this as the recipe had the goodness of whole wheat flour and jaggery i thought this is an ideal one to give for kids on a Sunday morning. i used Unrefined suagr instead of jaggery . And cherries .

 Ingredients:

Whole wheat flour -2 cups

Unrefined Cane sugar – 1 cup

Cherries  – 2 tbsp (Cut into small pieces)

Baking Powder -1 /2 tsp

Baking soda -1 /2 tsp

Wet Ingredients:

Cooking oil – 1/2 cup

Milk – 1 cup

Vanilla essence – 1 tsp

Water -1 /2 cup.

 Method:

  1. Ina bowl mix sugar , milk and oil.
  2. In another bowl add all dry ingredients and mix well.
  3.  Coat the cherries with little flour.
  4.  Preheat the oven @200 degrees for 10 minutes.
  5.  Now to the dry mixture add the wet mixture and mix well.
  6.  If needed  add water . Finally add the vanilla essence
  7.  It should be in pouring consistency. Add the  cut cherries to the batter . Reserve few for topping.
  8.  Line the cupcake moulds and pour the batter . Top with cherries .
  9.  Bake them for 10 to 15 minutes .
  10.  Insert a tooth pick when done to check if it is done. Serve  with any cold milk shake and waffles  as meal . Kids will really enjoy.

Tip:

  1. Unrefined cane sugar is better than brown sugar as sometimes Brown sugar is refined white sugar . Whereas  unrefined cane sugar does not undergo the refining process thus retaining the molasses flavour .
  2. You can add choco chips too to this.
  3. You can insert a spaghetti inside the baked cakes for a second and see if it is done.
