Healthy Eggless Cake (in pressure cooker)

Hello all you healthy people. This is my first article of 2015 so I decided to share with you a healthy sweet option (Kuch Meetha Ho Jaaye). Without further ado let’s get started.
Ingredients:
1. ½ cup whole wheat flour (atta)
2. 2-3 tbsp. cocoa powder
3. 1 tbsp. baking powder
4. 1 tsp. butter or ghee
5. 1/3 cup dates
6. Pinch of baking soda
7. Milk (1+4 tbsp.)
8. Water (1/3 cup + 2 tbsp.)
9. Chocolate chips (as per your taste)
10. Peanut butter (optional)
11. Pinch of salt (optional)
You will also need sand to bake the cake in the pressure cooker.
Procedure:
1. Soak the dates in 1/3 cup water and 1 tbsp. milk for about half an hour. And then puree it in a blender.
2. Mix all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
3. Add pureed dates and ghee.
4. Slowly add milk and water until the mixture turns semi solid. (I added 4 tbsp. milk & 2 tbsp. water)
5. Grease the vessel with ghee and flour.

6. Add the prepared mixture to it. You can add chocolates chips on the top.
 

7. Fill the pressure cooker (use aluminium one for this recipe) with sand until the whole bottom is covered. Place the plate on the top of it as shown.

8. Place the lid on it. Don’t use the rubber gasket and the whistle.
9. Heat the cooker on high flame for 5-7 minutes.
10. Place the vessel in the cooker and let it cook on low flame for around 45 minutes to 1 hour. (Insert a toothpick into the cake after 45 minutes. If it comes out clean then the cake is cooked. If not then let it cook longer.) And then your cake is ready to satisfy your sweet tooth.
