My Notes :
1. You can add powdered sugar instead of brown sugar. Adding brown sugar helps to get nice color.
2. You can also add cinnamon powder and raisins if you like.
3. Instead of wheat flour you can add the plain flour or mix of both.
4. The baking time may vary based on oven. So check at regular intervals after 30 mints.
5. You can use same batter in loaf or cup cake tray too. Also you can add chopped nuts on the top of cake before baking.
