Here’s a simple and easy recipe for a delicious dragon fruit cake

Ingredients:

For the cake:

1. 1 cup all-purpose flour
2. 1/2 cup sugar
3. 1/2 cup unsweetened dragon fruit puree (you can blend fresh or frozen dragon fruit)
4. 1/2 cup vegetable oil
5. 2 large eggs
6. 1 tsp baking powder
7. 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
8. 1/4 tsp salt
9. 1/4 cup milk

For the frosting:

1. 1 cup heavy whipping crea
2. 1/2 tbsp powdered sugar
3. 2 tbsp dragon fruit puree (optional for color)
4. 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

Prepare the Dragon Fruit Puree:

If you’re using fresh dragon fruit, peel it and blend the flesh until smooth. If it’s frozen, thaw it and blend.

Make the Cake Batter:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 9- inch round cake pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, mix the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and dragon fruit puree.

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth.

Bake the Cake:

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the cake cool completely in the pan, then remove and set aside.

Make the Frosting:

In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold in the vanilla extract and dragon fruit puree, if using, for added color and flavor.

Assemble the Cake:

Frost the cooled cake with the whipped cream mixture.

Decorate with additional fresh dragon fruit or any fruit of your choice.

Enjoy your homemade dragon fruit cake! It’s a vibrant and refreshing treat.
