Zojirushi’s Sponge Cake Recipe (for their rice cookers)
This is the recipe that came with my rice cooker since a few people have asked about it. The cake recipe was ok… just a little dry. I might tweak this recipe a little and try to make it again next time.
It’s a convenient little cake but I’m not sure if you can make it in any rice cooker. Since the one I used has a cake setting. But you can always try it and tell me how it comes out.
This recipe is for a 3 cup rice cooker.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 eggs (separate egg yolk from white)
1/4 cup sugar
vanilla extract to taste
A) 1/2 tbsp Milk
0.4 oz. Butter
Fresh cream, fruits (for decoration) as you like
Butter (for greasing Inner Cooking Pan) to taste
Directions:
- Grease the inside of the Inner Cooking Pan lightly and evenly with butter.
- Add A in a small bowl and float the small bowl in a larger bowl containing hot water to melt the butter.
- Beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add sugar until whites begin to hold their shape.
- Add yolks and vanilla extract to Step 3 and beat until thick.
- Add sifted all purpose flour to step 4. Mix with rubber spatula until smooth and well blended. Gently fold A from Step 2 without over-mixing.
- Pour the batter from Step 5 into the Inner Cooking Pan and hit the bottom of the inner Cooking Pan with the palm of your hand several times to release the air bubbles in the batter.
- Press the MENU button and choose the CAKE menu setting. Set the cooking time to 45 minutes and press the COOKING button.
- When baking completes, remove the cake onto a plate by turning the Inner Cooking Pan upside down, and allow it to cool.
- Frost the cake with whipped cream and garnish with desired fruit.
* Flavor variations: Sift cocoa powder with all purpose flour to make a chocolate cake, or green tea powder to make a green tea cake. (Add 2 tsp.)
Happy Baking!
