Eggless Vanilla Sponge Cake

 

  Cake was everyone's favorite . I made this egg less version of vanilla sponge cake. We call it as plain cake , as it is without any other extra flavor other than vanilla essence. 
   Cake is often the dessert of choice for meals at the ceremonial occasions , particularly weddings and birthdays. There are countless cake recipes ; some are rich and elaborate. Cake making is no longer a complicated procedure as in olden days , Baking equipment and directions have been simplified so that even amateur cook like me can bake cakes easily.  

  This cake was my favorite. Everyone in my family likes this cake a lot. My Mom makes this cake without oven during my childhood , she makes with egg.
  I made this cake when my cousin came to our home; she helped me in mixing the batter. She liked the cake too. When I asked what she want me to bake for her, she said immediately Plain cake.

 Requirements:

All purpose flour – 3 cup

Sugar ( Powdered ) – 1 ½ cup

Method :

Sieve the flour and baking powder together for twice.

Whisk butter and sugar together till frothy.

Add in the curd , lemon juice  and vanilla essence , mix well .

Now , add the flour in three batches and fold in gently.
For me , from the above measurement the consistency of batter came perfect.
If you find the batter is thick , can mix in the required milk to get the correct consistency.

Preheat the oven to 220 degree Celsius @ convection mode.

Pour this batter to a greased tray.

Bake for 20 minutes or till brown on top.

Check the cake is cooked by inserting a fork and it must come out clean.

Let it cool in the wire rack.

Plain cake is ready to serve.
