Steamed Oatmeal Cake
A cake made with no eggs or oil?
Alright, so I've a sweet tooth and have grown accoustomed to having pastries or bread of some kind for breakfast. So what happens on Sunday mid-morning when a review of the fridge and pantry shows a serious lack of good food? Well besides making a huge cuppa joe just to stay awake, head toward the good 'ol Mama Lin recipe archives.
Cooking with Mama Lin (first in a series!)
Ma's an eyeballer when it comes to ingredients, so I had to guesstimate on measurments.

Flour: 1/2 bowl
Raisins: 2-3 handfulls
Wolfberries: 2-3 handfulls
Sesame: white and black
Walnuts, broken into bits
Pine nuts
Brown sugar to taste
1. Mix all the ingredients together in medium steamable bowl.
2. Add 1 - 1 1/2 bowls of water and mix until well combined.
3. Steam in rice cooker until done.
Quick clean up: line bottom of bowl with aluminum foil sprayed with PAM or other cooking oil
