Healthy Steamed Pandan Layer Cake

Its take 2Ps  ~ Patient and Passion to make this time consuming cake.  If lazymama can do it, you are definitely no fuss at all in making this healthy and yet delicious cake. It took me 2½ hours to make the cake, but it was worth the effort.    Moreover steaming is always healthier that baking!   Right?  

I am going for Pandan favour for my 1st attempt is simply would like to join the the blog event of   Little Thumbs Up organized by Zoe of Bake for Happy Kids.  Kudos to her for the effort!  

Another of my favorite Pandan Ogura Cake can be found here

Updated on August 2014 sharing another master piece recipe on Steamed Orange Layered Cake.

The layers were not as perfect as they should be though but I am happy for the taste!  Mamamia!

We love the strong aroma of the pandan, that goes well with a cup of Coffee/Teh!

Did you notice my cake is disfigured  by these 'birds'  hahaha ........ The spirit of Ah Q!  ^_^

Steamed cake vs Oven Baked
I choose to steam the cake over baking it. What about you?



Baked cake is dense and a bit dry unlike the steamed cake, which is light moist and fluffy, that is my experience in my cake making journey.
Would you like to  share your views and  experience?

Beside steamed Banana Cake, I shared recipes on Steamed Peppermint Orange layered Cake, Steamed Pandan Layer Cakes and the most popular Super Moist Steamed Chocolate cake.

Fabulous Steamed Peppermint Orange Layered Cake 蒸橙汁千层蛋糕

My second Steamed layer cake. But the end product is not as satisfied as the previous Steamed Layer Cake with Pandan flavors.  Clink here to check it out!  The contrast of the layers are not clear as it should be, my attention was diverted by  my daughter in Melbourse over WhatApps on the making of her Unbaked Oreo Cheesecake.  I blamed it on her for my poor performance.   Hahahaa.....  feeling better now.
But  nevertheless I still need some kind words from you to console me as I spend 3 hours to prepare the cake.   Hehe....

The verdict ~   I was overwhelmed with the  response ( I brought some with me ) from my friends at Spastic Centre, Petaling Jaya during the  Charity Cooking demo today.  They like the cake very much as the cooling sensation  of peppermint  linger on........      Hurray to me! 

Pandan Ogura Cake #13 斑兰相思蛋糕

This is my 3rd posting of Ogura Cake with Pandan flavors.  Again?   Too many Ogura Cake for my blog???    No,  No,  I will  never get enough of Ogura Cake.   In fact I still have some other flavors of Ogura Cake  kept in my folder yet to have the chance to surface! on my blog!   LOL  

I am giving  myself 3 excuses to bake this cake.   Firstly I still have some  left over pandan juice from my Healthy Pandan Steamed Layered Cake , secondly Tammie  and her school mates intend to visit their primary school and wish to bring home baked cake for her teachers.  Last and not least of course I wish to sumbit this post for the Little Thumbs Up event for September month with the theme 'Pandan"   


 

 I have this  thin slice of the cake left for me only, so precious and delicious!  LOL!
