Hi,
Can I double all the ingredients for a bigger cake.¿Is it 1tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp baking soda in the ingredients¿ Can you please reply to both
Yes, you can double for a bigger cake.
Hi,
Do you suggest any substitute for curd in this recipe? The reason being jaggery and curd are not recommended by the Marathi Ayurvedic doctors.
Add brown sugar.
