PERFECT CARROT BREAD


Perfect Carrot Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com


This  Perfect Carrot Bread  becomes my favorite as it was easy and no-mixer required recipe.

It is loaded with carrot and warm spices of ground cinnamon and ginger. Using only 3/4 cup of sugar but you can increase up to 1 cup  if you want it sweeter.  By adding mashed bananas it cuts down the use of butter or oil in the recipe thus makes it healthier.

This bread is delicious on its own as  for  festive touch, a drizzle of cream cheese or lemon glaze on this Perfect Carrot Bread is what you need. It takes exactly 50 minutes to bake this loaf, turned out tender, just sweet enough and beautifully sliced.

MOIST LIGHT FRUIT CAKE

Moist Light Fruit Cake  Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

After long time, I have baked this Light Fruit Cake  for my family.  As requested again, by  my son, am going to bake his favorite cake.   

Always prefer less sweet and light fruit cake and this Moist Light Fruit Cake has a right balance of mixed fruit and sweetened with brown sugar.   

It is quite easy to make and a real crowd pleaser.  You can eat it anytime of the year not only for Christmas.

Used store bought dry fruit mix or mix your own dried fruit,  coated the fruit mix with flour before adding to the flour mixture. 

As am running out of fruit juice, have added half a cup of isotonic drink.

For eggless version, replace an egg with 1/4 cup plain yogurt or 1/4 cup apple sauce.

Moist Light Fruit Cake bake perfectly for flat 45 minutes and my son can't wait to devour after it came out of oven.  My family gave a thumbs up to this beautiful cake.

CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA CAKE RECIPE

Chocolate Chip Banana Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Quick and easy Chocolate Chip Banana Cake - thick, moist and loaded with chocolate chip.  I used oil in this recipe to make it lighter.

It uses self rising flour, ripened banana and oil.  In absence of self rising flour, add a teaspoon of baking powder and  half teaspoon of baking soda to plain flour.

Beat the eggs, oil  with sugar using a whisk, no mixer needed.   Add in  banana and vanilla, beat until well incorporated. Gently fold in flour and chocolate chips.

Used  11 x 7 in pan instead of 8 in cake pan.  Chocolate Chip Banana Cake turns out perfect  with  well distributed chocolate chips throughout.

Mocha Oatmeal Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Enjoy this oatmeal cake that is flavored with coffee and cocoa.

This Mocha Oatmeal Cake  is a perfect dessert to enjoy with family and friends.   Addition of oatmeal is a great way to include fiber in your diet too.
.
The rolled oat  is soaked in coffee for 20 minutes before adding to the batter.

I have used a wire whisk  to beat the butter and sugar but you could use a  mixer to do the job.

Mocha Oatmeal Cake turns out  gorgeous with no cracks and utterly moist.   I think the sweetness is on a lighter side ,  you may add extra sugar for a sweeter version.

BLUEBERRY YOGURT CAKE RECIPE

Blueberry Yogurt Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Top post on IndiBlogger, the biggest community of Indian Bloggers
Extremely moist and loaded with blueberry.  This  Blueberry Yogurt Cake  was  super easy to put together

I made it healthier by using whole wheat flour to the ratio of 1:1, one cup plain flour and 1 cup of whole wheat flour.

For a richer cake, you could sub oil for butter.  But I prefer to use canola oil for this recipe.

Yogurt is nutritious and eating it regularly will boost your health  especially the one without sugar and artificial flavors.  It contains most nutrients your body needs.  High in protein, calcium and trace minerals.

Be cautious with yogurt intake if yo have lactose intolerance or a milk allergy.

Actually you can make this Blueberry Yogurt Cake with just one  bowl and no mixer required.   Let me show you how to do it.

1.  Whisk together both flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl.

2.  Make a well in the center, break the eggs, beat lightly, add in oil. yogurt, vanilla  and sugar.   Give this liquid a good mix using a  whisk.

3,  Using a spoon, mix together dry and wet ingredients until well incorporated.  Mix in blueberry. Stir well.

The batter is now ready to be spooned into a greased pan and bake.

Am so glad this cake turned  great  with  beautiful golden color and  the blueberries are well distributed over the entire cake. .

LEMON YOGURT CAKE RECIPE

Lemon Yogurt Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.bkogspot.com

Super easy, quick and delicious Lemon Yogurt Cake  made with lemon zest, lemon juice and  and   topped with lemon frosting.

This cake uses vegetable oil and not butter as compared with other recipes.  At first, am reluctant to try it since it contains  high sugar in the cake plus for the frosting.

Surprisingly this Lemon Yogurt Cake has a right amount of sweetness and the best part was the frosting, it gives a wonderfully lemon  flavor. This will be my new to go recipe.

SPICED APPLE BREAD RECIPE

Spiced Apple Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com
.
Beautiful and delicious, this Spiced Apple Bread is made with grated apple spiced with cinnamon and  nutmeg,

First of all, Eid Mubarak  to  those celebrating and kindly forgive me for my MIA due to  some important  family commitments.

This Spice Apple Bread is a perfect choice to  make if you have extra apple stock. It is remarkable easy to whip up.

Using box grater, the royal gala apple works well for this recipe.   You can use other apple varieties as well.  Although you can't see the apple but the taste is there when you take a  bite.

If you prefer, bake this in a loaf pan instead of cake pan,

CHOCOLATE BISCUIT CAKE RECIPE

Chocolate Biscuit Cake Recipe  @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

The easiest and most decadent no bake Chocolate Biscuit Cake made  using crumbled biscuits, cocoa powder. and eggs.

In Italy or Portugal they shaped this dessert into a log  called Chocolate Salami and  a bit of port wine was added in their recipe. For Malaysia it is known as Batik Cake made with milo,  cocoa powder, condensed milk and eggs.  Some uses dark chocolate instead of cocoa powder.

Used brewed coffee  but you can replace it with  cream or milk.

I have shaped mine into a log but you can just pour the mixture onto lined cake or loaf pan.  Cover the pan with plastic wrap before letting it set in  freezer or refrigerator.

Chocolate Biscuit Cake is a great way to use up  leftover biscuit and to transform it into a  wonderful treat for your family and friends.

MANGO CAKE RECIPE


A homemade Mango Cake made with fresh mango.  Always love to add a fruit in my dessert.   I left with no more mango so unable to use this fruit for topping or as a prop.

Used fresh pureed mango but you can make use of canned one too. Make sure you drain the fruit well.

Adjust the sugar according to the sweetness of the mango, may be you need not use all the amount stated in the recipe.  For richer cake, opt for melted butter instead of vegetable oil.

Mango Cake turned out great without cracks on top.  You can definitely play around with your favorite frosting to dress up this cake.

HEALTHY BANANA BUNDT BREAD RECIPE

Healthy Banana Bundt Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Healthy Banana Bundt Bread  was made without oil or butter but still so moist and delicious.

If you're a regular visitor of my blog, you would notice, I have baked more than a dozen of banana cake/bread with slight variation on the ingredients used.

Stumbled upon this recipe while browsing Facebook.  Am eager to try it out since it uses yogurt and eggs to moisten the batter.

The original recipe uses 1/3 cup of honey but I have replaced it with half a cup of brown sugar.  This amount is just perfect for us. You can add more if you like it sweeter.

Am so glad, Healthy Banana Bundt Bread turned out incredibly fluffy and moist,   Less then 24 hours, it was almost gone, my family really love this bread.

PERFECT BANANA CAKE RECIPE

Perfect Banana Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

The best banana cake that was moist and came out beautiful.

As you might notice, I have baked banana cake regularly be it plain,  contains fruit or chocolate ones and now adding another fantastic recipe called Perfect Banana Cake. 

Full banana flavor, so moist, just the right amount of sweetness and the easiest to make.

Perfect Banana Cake was baked using varied temperature.  At first, I baked at 180 C for 15 minutes on the lowest rack then transfer the pan to sit on middle rack for 45 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

Baked the cake on lowest rack since I love the bottom to be well browned.

JAPANESE COTTON CHEESECAKE RECIPE

Japanese Cotton Cheesecake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

A soft and wonderful cake loaded with cream cheese and eggs  cooked in a hot water bath method.

After my successful attempt in making Butter Cheesecake, am eager to try this Japanese Cotton Cheesecake recipe.  It uses egg separation method and bakes in hot water bath.  This procedure ensures a gentle and uniform heat around the food.

It is much easier to separate an egg if it is chilled as it was slightly thicker than a regular egg.

My project to make Japanese Cotton Cheesecake went smoothly but I have one small problem though. My cake top did not turn golden brown  as done by others but  the edges do despite shifting the pan on the top rack.   Don't understand why this happens?

This cake baked up wonderful, no air bubbles in the cake, has a good taste and quality.  Everyone asked  for a second slice.

BUTTER CHEESECAKE RECIPE

This is our new favorite,   it  combines  cream cheese and butter that produces a wonderful cake.

Have bookmarked a few of cheese cake recipes to try out.  Am trying  this Butter Cheese Cake  that I have discovered while browsing on Facebook.

Butter Cheesecake  recipe was simple to make using egg separation method.  .

If you are serving a small family of 2-3, I would suggest you half the recipe unless you intend to  share with others.

The cold butter and cream cheese can be cubed to fasten the creaming process.

This Butter Cheesecake is our  favorite cheesecake recipe  and it is one of  the easiest to make!

TRICOLOR MARBLE CAKE RECIPE

Tricolor Marble Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Another butter cake project that has 3 color and swirled to get a marbling effect.

We're just entering a new year and I like to dedicate this post to my wonderful readers.  Wishing you a Healthy and Prosperous New Year!

You might notice that I deeply in love with  anything matble, be it dessert or bread.  For example the following recipes that I have tried:

Moist Marble Banana Cake

Chocolate Marble Bread

Marble Cake

This Tricolor Marble Cake made of 3 colors, green, red and plain. Not only colors but you can add any flavoring like strawberry, coffee, blueberry, pandan or lemon that suits the color of your choice. I don't have those so added only food coloring.

My Tricolor Marble Cake turned faint in color since I have used only 2 drops of the food coloring.  I think you should add little bit more to get vivid color.  Nevertheless it turned out rich, moist and delightful.

ZEBRA OIL CAKE RECIPE

Zebra Oil Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

An easy but impressive  cake using oil that has two contrasting colors.

Zebra Oil Cake is similar with butter cake but used oil instead with two colored stripes.

I used my electric hand mixer to beat sugar and eggs on high speed until it turns fluffy, thick  and pale in color for about 5 minutes.

The batter is divided into 2, one portion leaves as it is while the other mix in the cocoa powder. Now is the fun part, layering the batter by alternating between the plain and chocolate one until  both batter have been used up.  You need not spread the batter, it would spread by itself.

Do you know the difference between zebra and marble cake.? Zebra Oil Cake has almost even stripes where else marble cake has uneven pattern by swirling around the batter to create a marble effect.

PEACH CAKE FROM SCRATCH RECIPE

Peach Cake From Scratch Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

A soft and lovely cake studded with diced peaches perfect for  breakfast, brunch or teatime treat.

I have a can of peaches halves  sitting in my pantry for some time. My son saw it and ask me to bake a  peach cake.

Have baked peach cake before, this  Eggless Peach Cake  was  egg free so I want to try with eggs this time.

Used canned peaches, well drained and dice.  Even after cutting, still place them tin the colander to completely drain the liquid. Not only that a quarter cup of flour is added to these peaches.

The process of making Peach Cake From Scratch is quite simple.  It starts by beating eggs with sugar until light and fluffy.  Afterwards combine the dry and wet ingredients together.

For a richer taste, you could use melted butter instead of vegetable oil.

Another tips, you must grease your pan extremely well with butter then coat with flour.   This step is important to  release the cake from the pan with ease.

This Peach Cake From Scratch  takes a long time to cook so make sure to test with a skewer that comes out clean  before removing from your oven.
