Casserole in a multicooker
Description
The recipe will not take much time. Instead of semolina, you can use wheat flour, but with semolina it turns out tastier and fluffier. Cocoa powder, if you like, can be replaced with chocolate, which should first be melted in a double boiler and cooled, and only then added to the batter. If you make the casserole with flour, do not forget to add baking soda or baking powder. Adjust the amount of sugar to your taste. You can also add flavorings you enjoy—cinnamon, zest, lemon or orange juice, and others. For me, vanilla was enough. The bake is done. Serve at the table.

Step 8
Line the multicooker bowl with parchment paper or grease it with oil. Spoon the white dough into the very centre of the bowl. I used about 1.5 tablespoons of white batter each time, then spread about 1–1.5 tablespoons of chocolate dough on top.

Arrange all the dough this way, alternating white and chocolate.

Step 10
Using a wooden skewer, decorate the top of the casserole with a pattern. Place the inner pot in the multi-cooker, select the “Bake” program for 50 minutes, and cook until the signal. After that, do not open the lid immediately; leave the pie there for another 10 minutes.
