EGG-LESS APPLE CAKE IN MICROWAVE

APPLE CAKE

It was hubby’s Birthday! I wanted to prepare cake for him but due to office workload did not get much time. So this time planned to do cake in Microwave as it takes just 7 minutes in Microwave.

Usually I prepare cakes in oven as it comes up with nice brown crust but it takes almost 45 – 60 minutes. In Microwave cake is done in 7 minutes and taste as good as made in oven.
