Baking is all about mixing measured ingredients and waiting for the oven to do its magic. If you find baking to be therapeutic, you must get your hands on a steam oven to bake the softest treats ever. Even though baking with steam might sound unconventional, surprisingly, it works wonderfully to get you results, just like your favourite pastry chef does.
Unlike traditional ovens, a steam oven uses hot vapours for baking, which helps in locking the moisture content, thus giving a seamless texture and a fluffy dessert. Whether you want to bake a classic vanilla sponge cake or drool-worthy cupcakes, Usha’s steam oven lets you bake effortlessly. Here are some cake recipes you must try in your steam oven.
Vanilla Sponge Cake
One of the very first cakes you must have baked at the beginning of your journey as a baker must be the classic vanilla sponge cake. Just the way you must have perfected the recipe in a traditional oven, you can follow the same for Usha’s steam oven. With a batter made with flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and vanilla extract, you can let it bake in the steam oven. In about 30 minutes, the aroma of the vanilla cake is sure to please you.
Lava Cake
If you are a fan of chocolates, you cannot skip baking a chocolate lava cake in your steam oven. All you need to do to make the luscious lava cake is make a smooth batter with flour, cocoa powder, eggs, sugar, butter, baking powder, baking soda, and vanilla essence.

Carrot Cake
Making the most of the winter produce, it is only fair to bake the seasonal carrot cake. You can start by grating some carrots and keeping them aside for a while. Next, you can make a batter by whisking eggs, butter, flour, and sugar. Fold in the grated carrots and add some chopped walnuts into the batter. Pour the batter into a greased pan and bake. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and serve the carrot cake.
Rainbow Cake
Rainbow cake is a classic dessert that can be perfectly made in Usha’s steam over. Since you’ll need soft layers of different colours stacked on top of each other, the added moisture whilst baking in a steam oven will give you a denser texture. So, you can make seven equal portions of the batter, add one rainbow colour to each, and bake. You can then stack the layers using whipped cream, garnish with vanilla frosting, and dig in.
Vanilla Cupcakes
If there is a dessert that has no haters, it has to be vanilla cupcakes. They are simple yet so elegant. Plus, since the vanilla cupcakes are so versatile, you can literally add any of your favourite fruit, toppings, or frosting. Just make lots of them in your steam oven, as nothing is better than soft and mouth-melting vanilla cupcakes.
Chocolate Cake Pops
To add a twist to the usual chocolate cake or a walnut brownie, you can make chocolate cake pops. Firstly, you can make a batter for a chocolate cake or brownie, as you prefer. Then, you can bake it in the Usha steam oven till you get a clean toothpick. Next, you can crumble the soft cake and mix it with heavy cream. Make round balls out of them and freeze them till they are set. Finally, have a gala time decorating the cake pops and pleasing your sweet tooth.
