Make Delicious Hazelnut Cake in a Rice Cooker - No Microwave Needed!

[lisacb77]

I noticed in the Hazlenut cake recipe it said you need to do it in a microwave with a turntable. We don't have one. Can I still do it? This was the whole reason I got it! Would I just need to turn it every few minutes?

Anyone done it?

You can purchase a separate turn-table for mirowaves. Something like that would be your best bet. Stopping the microwave to turn it would allow the expanding gasses in the cake to collapse. Your cake might be cooked, but it wouldn't turn out as even or light.

Yes, you can still make the Hazelnut cake even if you don't have a microwave with a turntable. You can try using a regular microwave and just make sure to rotate the cake every few minutes to ensure even cooking. Alternatively, you can also bake the cake in a regular oven. Just adjust the baking time and temperature accordingly. I haven't personally tried it, but I'm sure others have and can share their experiences. Good luck!
