Eggless Yogurt Cake

May 16, 2014 By Manu 15 Comments

Eggless Yogurt Cake

Yogurt cake is one of the very first recipes I have published on my site over 3 years ago.  It has always been one of my favourite cakes: easy to make, delicious and quite healthy (for being a cake) as it does not contain any butter.  It is also a very versatile cake as it can be sliced and filled with jam, cream, Nutella, chocolate ganache, fruits… you name it.  Not only… I often make it into muffins and put them in my kids’ lunchboxes.  On top of all of that, it makes a great base for any fondant covered cake.  That’s what I have used to make my Peppa Pig Cake, my Miffy Cake and many others.  It is moist, but resistant enough to bear the weight of fondant (including figurines).  So, basically it is my go-to cake.  Today I will share with you the recipe for a Yogurt cake which looks and tastes exactly like the “normal” Yogurt cake I love, but has an added bonus: it is eggless and can thus be enjoyed by people who cannot eat eggs.  Serve it with a nice cup of tea or for breakfast.  Enjoy!

    Sounds and looks WONDERFUL, but, Cannot PIN this. There is NO image that comes up when pinning and that is required.

    Hi Manu,

    Tried this cake today. Just wondering if the oil quantity is 1/3 cup or 2/3 cup? My cake seems to be ‘oil less’ and dry.

    Enjoying reading all the new recipes!

    Thanks,

    Anjali

      Hi Kalyani! You can use regular Indian yogurt for this. Just make sure it is smooth (you can also whisk it a little bit to remove any lumps). Let me know how you like it! 🙂

    I tried this yesterday and its just awful! I followed the recipe to the tee and the bottom does not cook… only the top! Also, the cake is not sweet at all even though the recipe calls for so much sugar. Very disappointed!

      Same thing happened to me. I was so disappointed that the cake was uncooked at the bottom and came out very heavy. I even gave it an extra 10 minutes because after testing, 50 minutes wasn’t enough.

    I tried the recipe today and it was not exactly how I expected. It turned beautiful from out and i even added some chocolates pieces as from the recipe I scented there was a lot of flour. Indeed I think a bit too much for my opinion very high actually could have made two loafs as came out a 9 inch cake plus 8 cupcakes which unfortunately didnt eat as left 30 mns like cake. It was not sweet enough but that didnt disturbed me. I was curious of the result.
    My daughter said it tasted like bread. I guess its maybe ideal for people who dont want to eat eggs, but with so much flour there should be something extra to make it less dense and compensate
    This was my experience which i really wanted to share.
    Thanks
