Can we bake it in OTG, as we don’t have microwave
Unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend baking this recipe as it’s meant for a microwave and would likely dry out. But make sure to check out my banana walnut cake recipe as a great substitute! Happy baking!
This is very little quantity to baked in OTG. Thanks
