Here's how i made something delish and healthy out of leftover watermelon fruit and stored for another 2-3 days. 100% Wheat flour Watermelon Cupcakes No flavourings No added colour Simple yet tasty and moist:v:

Instructions

Preheat oven to 180C
Cut the melon fruit in pieces. Discard the seeds.
In a pan directly add the watermelon pieces and cook on medium flame by stirring continuously.
In 5-10 minutes the water will start to evaporate and form a thick fruit pulp.
Let it cool a little and grind it into smooth liquid.
Sieve flour+ baking soda+ baking powder+ salt
Whisk together watermelon pulp +buttermilk + sugar + oil if using.
Mix flour mixture in wet mixture in 2-3 portions.
Wheat flour absorbs lot of liquid. If you find batter to be very thick then adjust by adding some milk or water or buttermilk.
But batter should not very watery. See picture for batter consistency.
Scoop in the cup cake liners till 3/4 full, Sprinkle some choco chips on top.
Bake for 35-40 minutes on 180C. Or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Everything used should be on room temperature. In picture you can look at the spongy texture from inside :heart:
While Baking eggless and wheatflour cake you need to keep certain things in mind that preheating the oven is mandatory
Also overbeating and very liquidy batter leads to a bad cake which can be uncooked from the centre or sink when cooled.
