Having fun with my new gadget...Rice cooker with the "Cake Function"

What do you do on a hot, sunny day?? Feeling lazy and bored.

Well, for me, I decided to "bake" a cake using a rice cooker, which I had never tried before. Of course, everything seems pretty easy and no fuss.

I had "bake" a Banana Cinnamon Cake using the rice cooker.

Look at the excellent texture of this cake. It is really soft and spongey. And look at the color of the bananas. This rice cooker cake simply looked and tasted wonderful. I can't help myself popping one piece after another.

I had bought this book on my recent trip to Taiwan last week. I had bought a quite a number of cookbooks from Taiwan but for sure, I regretted not getting more books as they were relatively cheaper than Singapore and Malaysia.

This book had alot of great recipes and I should be trying them out very soon.

And here is my new gadget...My Panasonic Rice Cooker with the cake function. Hehehe... Come to think of it, my new rice cooker had been hiding in my storeroom for almost or more than a year... Thank goodness I bought my new books and this rice cooker came in handy...♡

Here's Nat. More than happy to help me out whenever I am baking:-)
