Eggless Vanilla Sponge Cake (Eggless Basic Cake Recipe)
I've always been looking out for a basic egg less version of vanilla cake as I've already posted a egg version of vanilla cake. And this recipe from Nita Mehta cookbook is sure a keeper. It comes out perfect every time. I made this before new year eve and could reserve only 2-3 pieces for click sake after the distribution to neighbors and friends. ![]() Ingredients: Maida - 1 and 1/2 cups [Here my 1 cup measures 200 gms]Thick Curd - 1 cup Sugar - 3/4 cup [Orginal recipe called for 1 cup]Baking soda - 1/2 tspBaking powder - 1 1/4 tspCooking oil - 1/2 cupVanilla essence - 1 1/2 tsp Method: Sieve maida twice and keep aside.Cream sugar and curd until sugar completely dissolves. Add baking powder, baking soda to the creamed mixture and mix well. Leave aside for 5 mins and you can see the bubbles appearing. Now add cooking oil, vanilla essence and mix well. Next slowly add maida in portions at a time and blend with wet ingredients. Beat well with a whipper until creamy and thick Preheat oven to 200 deg C for 10mins. Meanwhile grease a loaf pan and pour the batter to the pan and keep it ready. Bake in preheated oven at 200 degree C for 10 mins, then reduce temperature to 180 deg C and bake it for 25-30 mins or till a fork inserted into the cake comes out clean. Just brush the top of the cake with 1tbsp milk, 10mins before the ending time to get a nice polishing glaze. Allow the cake to cool down for 20mins and then cut/slice them into pieces. ![]() Last time when I baked , it got over before clicking so this time I made sure to click atleast with pieces I reserved only 3 of them :( I wish I could have clicked the loaf but will try to update the pics here next time I bake them. My Notes: Do not try to reduce oil and curd, I tried once to reduce oil and the cake was a great flop ;) The cake is moist and very soft , which keeps the same softeness for more than a week. Dont doubt on using curd, the taste of curd is totally not shown in the cake. You can use homemade curd or use nestle curd which is very thick and works good too. You can use icing sugar too, I used normal sugar only. I felt 3/4 cup of sugar was enough but the orginal recipe called for 1 cup. If you have a very sweet tooth then use 1 cup of sugar. As I always say select a pan such that the batter is close to 3/4th of it or slightly above 1/2 of it. ![]() related searches : Eggless
