Eggless Moist Vanilla Cake Recipe

Firstly, I’ve owned this recipe since forever and it never disappoints me or my clients. It’s different from the regular vanilla sponge recipe and tastes better than the regular for sure.

Moreover, all my cream cakes which require a vanilla sponge cake base are made with this one. Also, it’s too easy and quick however I would not recommend using this one for fondant based cakes since fondant is heavy and this recipe yields an extremely light cake as a result, the cake sponge would not be able to carry the weight of the fondant.

Vanilla Sponge Cake Recipe

Ingredients

• Yogurt 1 cup, 270 grams
• Baking soda 1/2 teaspoon
• Baking powder 1 1/4 teaspoon
• Castor sugar 3/4 cup + 3 tablespoons, 190 grams
• Unflavored oil 1/2 cup, 130 ml
• Vanilla extract 1 teaspoon
• All-purpose flour 1 1/4 cup, 160 grams

Instructions

• First of all, sieve the flour in a bowl and set aside
• Secondly, in another bowl, beat the yogurt and sugar together. Next, to this mixture add the baking soda and baking powder. Beat well making sure there are no lumps and let this mixture rest for 5-8 mins. As a result, this mixture will have bubbles all around and turn frothy
• Next, add the vanilla essence and oil. Beat well
• Fold in the flour making sure there are no lumps
• Then, pour this batter in a 6-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper
• In conclusion, bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees C for 30 – 40 mins or until an inserted skewer comes out clean

Note

• Do not keep the batter unbaked for long, as a result, the baking powder and baking soda tends to loose its effect
• Another variation I enjoy to this Eggless Vanilla Cake Sponge Recipe is adding a combination of 3 essences instead of just vanilla essence/extract. I mix rose essence, almond essence, and vanilla essence together and add 1 teaspoon of this mixture to the batter. Trust me, this combination is divine
