Ingredients
  • ½ cup - whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup - unbleached all purpose flour
  • 1 cup - brown sugar or palm sugar or preferably raw cane sugar. Raw cane sugar and palm sugar has a very low melt temperature and an extremely high burn temperature so they make perfect healthy choices in baked products in place of white sugar.
  • 1 cup - eggs
  • 1 stick or ½ cup - butter
  • ⅛th tsp - vanilla or cinnamon which ever flavor you like.
  • 1 tsp - baking powder or ½ tsp baking soda or ½ tsp baking powder and ½ tsp eno.

  4. Whisk till well mixed. Using electric mixer save lot of time.

  7. Pour batter in pan. Bake at 350ºf (150ºc) for 40-50 minutes.
