When I was a child, my family’s breakfast was Bread and Hot Drink. Some mornings, when my mother realised we didn’t have enough Bread, she often made steamed Bread. If she’d had a rice cooker that cooks Cake, she would have used it. This Carrot Bread was cooked in the rice cooker. The top side cannot be browned, but it looks fine upside-down. Naturally this batter can be baked in the oven OR cooked in a frying pan.

Steps

1

Line the base of rice cooker’s inner pot with baking paper. *Note: If your inner pot is in a good state, baking paper would be unnecessary.
2

Place Self-Rising Flour, Sugar and Salt into a large bowl and mix well. *Note: If you use Plain Flour, you need to add 1 teaspoon Baking Powder and mix well.
3

Add finely grated Carrot, Milk and Eggs, and whisk until smooth. Add melted Butter and mix well. Add Sultanas (OR Raisins) if you want to add some, and combine.
4

Pour the mixture into the prepared rice cooker’s inner pot, spread evenly, and press ‘Start’ button at ‘Cake’ setting. When it is cooked, turn out on a plate and carefully peel away baking paper, and enjoy. OR you may wish to cool it on a wire rack.

*Note: Compare the top side and bottom side. The top side cannot be browned and it looks steamed. *Note: I used my 10 cup capacity rice cooker which inner pot is 20cm in diameter. It took 40 minutes to cook.
