Sourdough Pandan Cake

I baked this soudough pandan cake to celebrate "Mother's Day". I baked two cakes, the big one is for my mother in law and the small one is for myself. I delivered the cake to my MIL and she was delighted with the cake.😘

I used a recipe from a SDSGM member and I decorated the plain cake with butter cream to make it look more beautiful and elegant!😉

👆This cake is delivered to my MIL.

👆This 4" cake is for myself. 😊

Sourdough Pandan Cake


Ingredients:

225g   Sourdough starter, ripe (fed) or discard

110g   Milk 

110g  Pandan juice 

220g   All-Purpose Flour

160g   Granulated sugar

180g   vegetable oil

1 tsp   Vanilla extract

1 tsp   Salt

1 1/2 tsps Baking soda

2 large   Eggs


Butter Whipped Cream

Ingredients:

200g unsalted butter (softened)

180g powdered sugar

40ml  heavy cream or whipping cream

1/2tsp  vanilla extract

Tiny pinch of salt


Instructions:

For making the cake:

  1. Combine the starter, milk, pandan juice and flour in a large mixing bowl. Cover and let rest at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours. It won't necessarily bubble, but it may have expanded a bit.
  2. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 9" x 13" pan.( I used 6" & 4" pan)
  3. In a separate bowl, beat together the sugar, oil, vanilla, salt, and  baking soda. The mixture will be grainy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Gently combine the egg mixture with the pandan mixture, stirring till smooth. This will be a gloppy process at first, but the batter will smooth out as you continue to beat gently.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  7. Bake the cake for 30 to 40 minutes, until it springs back when lightly pressed in the center, and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

Intructions for making butter cream:

  1. Beat the butter until smooth.
  2. Add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed at first, then increase to medium speed and beat until fully combined.
  3. Add the heavy cream little by little, vanilla extract, and salt and continue mixing on medium speed until everything is well combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  4. Use the frosting to  frost a cake or cover tightly and refrigerate until you are ready to use it.


Happy Baking!
