Eggless Vanilla Cake


I’ve been looking for a simple cake recipe for quite some time. So when I came across this recipe I couldn’t wait myself. The result was quite perfect and delicious.
Ingredients:
Maida/All purpose flour – 1½ cups
Thick curd – 1 cup
Granulated sugar – ¾ cup
Baking soda – ½ tsp
Baking powder –1 ¼ tsp
Vanilla essence – 1½ tsp
Cooking oil – ½ cup (I used Sunflower oil)
Milk – 1 tbsp

Preparation:
Seive maida/ All-purpose flour twice and keep it aside. Take the curd in a bowl and add the granulated sugar into it and beat well using a whisk/beater until the sugar dissolves.
Add baking soda and baking powder into this and mix well and keep it aside for 5 mins. You can see bubbles appearing in this mixture. Add the vanilla essence and cooking oil and mix well.
Add maida into it slowly and beat well in between so that no lumps are formed. The mixture will thick and creamy.
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Transfer the ingredients into a greased cake tin/loaf pan and bake it at 200°C for 10 mins. Reduce the temperature to 180°C and bake for 30-35 mins. It took 35 mins for me to bake it properly. Check if it is done properly by inserting a fork/tooth pick in the middle.  Brush 1 tbsp milk on the top of the cake 10 mins before the baking ends to get a polished glaze.
Wait for 10-15 mins for the cake to cool down. Slice it and enjoy with a cup of tea J.
