Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.13 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Chopped walnuts
- 1 teaspoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease two ramekins or a small 6-inch round cake pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts gently to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter equally into the prepared ramekins or the cake pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes in the ramekins or pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar before serving for an elegant touch.
Slice, serve, and enjoy!
