Orange Olive Oil Egg-less Cake | Eggless Cake Recipes

Ni satu lagi pilihan kek tanpa telur. Rasa sedap...tak manis sangat dan lembab2 macam apam. Saya suka, saya suka...

Ingredients:
Makes on 9" cake; Serves 8

All purpose flour/Maida - 1 cup (Takde maida2nya)
Whole Wheat flour - 1/2 cup - saya guna 1 1/2 cup tepung gandum
Corn Starch - 2 tbsp
Salt - 1/8 tsp
Baking Soda - 1 tsp
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Orange juice - 1/2 cup - preferably freshly squeezed
Thick greek yogurt - 1 cup (room temperature)
Olive oil - 1/2 cup
Sugar - 1/2 cup + 1/4 cup
Orange zest - 1 tbsp - I used lime zest, hence the green hue
Pure Vanilla Extract - 1 tsp

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 F.
Mix 1/4 cup of sugar with the orange zest and set aside. Grease and flour a 9" deep pan. Mix the flours, salt, baking powder, baking soda with a whisk or fork until it is well mixed. Whisk the yogurt and sugar together until the sugar melts.

Add the olive oil, vanilla and the sugar with zest and mix well. Now add the dry ingredients alternating with flour mixture and juice. Do not overmix. Pour in the greased bowl and bake for 30-40 minutes. Serve as a simple snack with a cup of tea.

Notes:

1. You could use all all-purpose flour for a lighter cake.

2. I did not frost the cake. You could use a whipped cream frosting with sugar and perfumed with orange zest.

3. Alternatively you could soak up the cake in sweetened orange juice before serving.

4. I have substituted 1/2 cup of Splenda for 1/2 cup of sugar to make a low-calorie version.
