Whether you are allergic to eggs or you are a vegetarian trying to prepare cakes or you want to celebrate Christmas or turn a dull day into something fun and bright, what better way to enjoy them than preparing a home-made cake – minus the eggs.

In the last post, I had posted a Youtube video which showed you how to make an eggless chocolate cake. I decided to take it a bit further and search for more eggless cake recipes.

There are three recipes for you -

1. How to make a simple and easy eggless cake (vanilla flavor)

2. Variation of eggless cake with an Orange flavor

3. A chocolate version of the eggless cake variety.

Also check out the new Indian cake recipes collection (most are eggless varieties)

Simple and Easy Eggless Cake

Ingredients:

  • Maida (Flour) – 2 1/2 cups
  • Butter or Ghee – 3 tablespoons
  • Milk – 1 cup (room temperature)
  • Curds (Yogurt) – 1 cup
  • Seedless Dates – 1 cup, finely chopped and mixed with 1 tablespoon flour
  • Baking powder – 2 level tablespoon
  • Powdered Sugar – 2 cups
  • Walnuts, Aprictos – 1 cup
  • Vanilla essence – 2 teaspoon

Method:

Powder sugar. Add butter and blend for 2 minutes. Add milk at room temperature and blend for a secong. Add curd and blend for another minute. Add dates, vanilla essence and blend for 2 seconds. Add the sifted maida and baking powder mix and just blend to mix together.

Pour into a well greased cake pan and shake gently. Top that with chopped walnuts and apricots. Bake in a heated oven at 190 degrees C for about 40 minutes.

When a nice smell starts coming in, insert a sharp knife into the cake; if the knife comes out in one smooth motion without sticking, this means your cake is ready.

    This was a wonderful help! I used the eggless chocolate cake recipe but put my own crazy spin on it. I made it a marble cake with the chocolate portion having orange essence and the vanilla portion having mint essence. Its cooling now so we’ll see how it tastes later! I also made a cream cheese frosting for once it’s cooled. A massive sugar fest!
    Thank you for the eggless recipe. I wanted to make a cake but I had no eggs and this site come to the rescue!

    Regarding the orange cake recipe, what is a tumbler ? Is is the same as a cup? What is powdered sugar? Is it the same as icing sugar? What is refined oil? Is is extra virgin olive oil, canola oil or vegetable oil? How long do I cook the cake and on what temperature?
    The recipe looks lovely, I just want to make sure I do it right.

    Just checked with my mom. Varuna, U need to add Maida and Juice alternately to the mixture…Once you do this the mixture will start to become hard.

    Natasha, the ones featured here are eggless only and relatively fat free. However they are a little high in calories so be a little cautious and don’t get too tempted :-) if you are health conscious.

      Hi Nidhi.. Just checked with our cooking experts. The reason egg is used is for the consistency in the cake. These recipes are for vegatarians who want to avoid eggs
