Eggless Vanilla Cake - Baking - Andhra Telugu Recipes - Indian Vegetarian Food

(Online Conversion utility to convert Gms to Cups & Temperatures etc)

Preparations:

Preheat oven at 200^oC in convection mode. Place a sieve in a bowl & add maida, baking powder and baking soda. Sift all these dry ingredients to mix well. Take a cake tin (small) and smear ghee on the sides and bottom of the tin. Sprinkle some maida in this prepared cake tin and tap it turning to coat it. The maida gets stuck to the ghee and works like a butter paper.

Method:

In a mixing bowl add sweetened condensed milk, essence, melted butter, sifted dry ingredients and water. Mix all well till there are no lumps and the batter is smooth. Pour this cake batter in the prepared cake tin and place this tin in the preheated oven. Bake the cake at 200^oC in convection mode for 25 minutes. Temperature and timings differ from oven to oven. So keep watching while baking. To test the doneness of the cake, insert a tooth-pick in the cake. If the tooth-pick comes out clean then the cake is done. If some batter sticks to the tooth-pick then bake the cake for some more time. Here it took me 22 minutes to bake the cake. When the cake is done remove the tin from oven. After 2 minutes, turn the cake on to a wire rack and cool completely before icing it.

Icing:

Ingredients:

• Powdered Sugar – 100gms

• Corn Flour – 4gms (1 Level Teaspoon)

• Unsalted Butter – 55gms

• Vanilla Essence – 1/2tsp

Method:

Place a fine sieve in a bowl and add powdered sugar and corn flour. Sift the two ingredients to mix well. The icing for this cake should be smooth so remove any granules in the powdered sugar by sifting through a fine sieve. Measure 85gms of the prepared icing sugar and keep it aside. In a bowl take unsalted butter which is at room temperature. Beat with a spoon to make it soft and creamy. Do not warm the butter to soften. When the butter is creamy add icing sugar little by little and mix. Slowly add the icing sugar to the butter. When all the icing sugar is incorporated into the butter mixture add essence and mix well. The icing is ready to decorate the cake.

Cake Decoration:

The prepared icing may be spread on the cake and smoothened to decorate the cake. To make it more attractive use icing syringe, with different nozzles. Fill the syringe with the icing and fix a nozzle of your choice and pipe it along the border of the cake. The icing forms a decorative lace to the cake. Further garnishing with cherries makes the cakes look and taste more attractive. Serve the eggless cake to your family members.

Points to Remember:

Bake the cake in convection mode only when using aluminum tin.

Greasing & dusting the cake tin will make the baked cake detach from the tin.

See that there are no lumps in the cake batter.

Keep a watch while baking as temperature and timings differ from oven to oven.

Use unsalted butter which is kept at room temperature.

To prepare soft icing sift the powdered sugar to remove any granules left in it.

Add icing sugar to the creamy butter little by little. For a firm icing add some more icing sugar (around 115gms).

Decorate the cake using icing and enjoy the fresh, fluffy and tasty eggless cake.

Enjoy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bindu Garu,

Measurements in cups and spoons are never same, because depending upon the cup sizes and how much we pack, the quantities differ. Therefore I suggest my viewers to have a small kitchen weighing scale for surely succeeding in making the recipes. Kindly visit my kitchen aids videos where I have discussed more.

However for a rough idea you my use the online conversion provided on the right hand column of the recipe page
