Chocolate Mug Cake
Chocolate mug cake is a quick and easy fix for your cravings.

Pour the contents into a mug and let the steam oven do its magic. In about ten minutes, you’ll have a mug cake to sit back and dig in.
Banana Oatmeal Cookies
If you’re looking for a guilt-free dessert, you can make banana oatmeal cookies. All you need to do is make a batter of bananas, eggs, oats, butter and the nuts you prefer. You can also add a dash of ground cinnamon. Then, you need to put the batter on greased baking sheets and then bake it in Usha’s steam oven for about fifteen minutes. Once crisp, you can store these banana oatmeal cookies in an airtight container for a week.
Apple Crisps
Apple crisps are also a healthier choice for desserts that can be made quickly without requiring an extensive list of ingredients. For starters, take an apple and slice it finely. Now, add the slices in a bowl with sugar or jaggery and cinnamon to coat the apple slices. In a separate bowl, take flour, oats, sugar, and some melted butter and mix them together. Next, take the slices, give them a final coat of this mixture, and set them on a baking tray on butter paper. Wait for twenty minutes, and you’ll have the delicious apple crisps ready.
Lemon Tart
Indulging in tarts is the best way to unwind while binge-watching a movie or re-running your favourite show. To bid goodbye to the winter season, you can bake a lemon tart. Start by making lemon curd by whisking egg yolks, lemon juice, sugar, and butter till you get a consistent filling. You can add the filling to the partially baked crust. Then, put the dish in Usha’s steam oven and bake for another half an hour. To make the dessert even more indulgent, you can add some whipped cream on the top, along with a few berries.
Macarons
Macarons are colourful delights that just put a smile on everyone’s faces. With a crunchy exterior and a mouth-melting interior, you can also get the goodness of your favourite nut or frosting with these treats. So, whip some binding agent like aquafaba (chickpea brine) or mashed banana syrup with powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Add some chopped dry fruits to the batter and pipe into small round portions on a baking sheet. Bake them in Usha’s steam oven and let them cool before you eat to ensure that the shell is crispy.
Doughnuts
Doughnuts are handy desserts that work like magic with kids as well as adults. You can also make these colourful desserts with a standard batter made with all-purpose flour, sugar, eggs, butter, baking powder, etc. You can bake them in Usha’s steam oven in batches and allow them to cool. Finally, you can glaze them with coloured icing, glitters, or even edible flowers.
