AIBU to use a food processor to make a cake?

[AllInOneCake]

I have just made a lemon drizzle cake in a food processor, using the all in one method. It has come out fine.
AIBU to assume that the usually recommended method of beating the butter and sugar together first, then beating in the eggs followed by folding in the flour is a lot of faff and completely unnecessary?

If you work by hand I suspect the longer process is more effective , and even in a mixer I tend to add things in the normal order , prevents butter lumps and avoids over beating the eggs - ie less likely that something might sometimes go wrong

Definitely not. I suppose you're using a raising agent? I can tell the difference.

No but YABU to start a thread asking whether you are.

Both are easy but there's nothing wrong with the all in one method.

The all in one method is what Mary Berry uses isn't it? I tend to make gluten free cakes by hand because they can get heavy and rubbery more easily but for normal cakes, it's fine.

At school in food tech I was told to just add it all at once!

Using self raising flour!

I nearly always do all in one cake mixtures!
