I made an easy and quick cake for an afternoon snack.

The amount of the pancake mix is about 3 rounded tablespoons. Cover it loosely with plastic wrap and you will have a fluffy and delicious steamed bun-like cake. Please try making different varieties!! Recipe by Nira yome

Steps

1

Combine the pancake mix and the milk in a heatproof container, such as a coffee mug. The amount of the pancake mix is rounded tablespoons shown in the photo, it does not need to be exact.
2

Stir the ingredients well in the cup until smooth.
3

Cover the container loosely with plastic wrap and microwave it for 1 minute and 30 seconds!! Without the plastic wrap, the batter may bulge up and come out of the container...
4

It is done. It's very fluffy. You can make various flavors and it can be a perfect snack for you and your child.
5

This is the cocoa flavored version. Add 1/2 tablespoon of cocoa powder at Step 1.

Addendum: I have learnt from one of the users that adding 1 tablespoon of milk helps the cake rise if the regular way isn't doing the trick! Please try this if your cake did not rise too much.
