Do you remember how as a kid you might have enjoyed playing with your Easy Bake Oven? Well I was pleased to find out the other day that these ovens are still for sale.
If you like the look of a vintage easy bake oven then you can find lots of vintage styles, unused and still in their packages online. As you might call the oven was heated by a light bulb and the oven came with a little pans and cake mixes for making the Easy Bake Oven Cakes. However these cake mixes are expensive and just about impossible to find which why I am glad that I kept my recipes for the Easy Bake Oven. I remember that I reduced and calculated all of the ingredients myself so that I would not have to pay for the expensive mixes.
Here they are –
Banana or Chocolate or Vanilla Cake
6 tablespoons flour
4 teaspoons sugar
¼ teaspoon baking powder
Dash of salt
Six teaspoons milk
2 teaspoons butter
3 tablespoons banana cream pudding mix (or chocolate or vanilla- whatever flavor you want to make)
Mix the dry ingredients together and then add vanilla, milk and butter. Mix until smooth and then add the banana pudding mix.
Butter and flour the little mix pans and pour the mixture in and bake in the Easy Bake Oven of 12 to fifteen minutes. Ice with chocolate frosting and press a candied banana chip in the center of each cake or make a little layer cake.
Easy Bake Peach Upside Down Cake
¼ yellow instant cake mix
3 tablespoons peach juice
A couple of canned pieces sliced into chunks
Brown sugar
Grease the pan with butter and cover the bottom of the pan with the brown sugar. Layer the peaches on top and then pour the batter over the peaches. Bake for twenty minutes. Let cool a bit and flip over when done. Serve with a bit of vanilla ice cream or milk poured over it.
Easy Peanut Butter Cake
6 tablespoons flour
4 teaspoons sugar
¼ teaspoon baking powder
Dash salt
6 teaspoons milk
2 teaspoons peanut butter
Mix the dry ingredients. Add the vanilla, milk and peanut butter and stir until smooth. Pour the batter into the cake pan and bake for twenty minutes. Let cool and serve with strawberry preserves or jam. You can also make a layer cake with the middle layer being peanut butter.
