Celebrate Father’s Day With A Surprise Ghee Cake Recipe

Cake lovers will agree that any occasion is a great excuse to bake, and with Father’s Day fast approaching, this is the perfect reason to create a delicious, and healthy, treat. 

What’s more, if you want to avoid using butter for food intolerance or vegan reasons, or you simply want to enjoy a rich, moist cake, creating a ghee-based bake will definitely go down well with your dad. 

The fab thing about this ghee cake by Tays Tit is that it doesn’t even require an oven to make, so you don’t need to be an avid baker to get this right. 

Simply mix organic ghee, vegetable oil, and icing sugar in a bowl until it forms a paste. Then beat in two eggs, one at a time, with vanilla essence. 

Sieve flour and baking powder into the mixture, and add milk, or a plant-based substitute, into the bowl and combine. 

Then you need to put some cooking oil into a wide-based pan and pour in the cake batter. Heat up the mixture over a flame until it is cooked, or pop it in a preheated oven. 

Leave it to cool before cutting it into slices and serving with a delicious cup of tea or coffee. 

Najila’s ghee cake recipe is very similar but incorporates lemon juice into the mixture as well, giving the cake an extra kick when baked. 

These are both good choices for dads on Father’s Day, particularly ones who are conscious about their nutrition or don’t have a taste for very sweet, sugary cakes covered in icing or buttercream. 

While enjoying their little treat, they can be reassured of the many benefits of ghee, including aiding their digestive system, improving their skin, and getting a source of healthy fats and essential vitamins.
