Eggless Orange Cake Step by Step

Take all your ingredients

Start by sifting the dry ingredients...Take flour in a sifter

Add in baking soda / cooking soda

and some baking powder

sieve it up

set this aside

I took a round cake pan, oiled them well and sprinkled some flour over it, coated it on all sides and tapped off the excess

This recipe calls for orange juice, but i took a big orange, Peeled it, Removed the seeds and Ground it coarsely . You don't have to remove the skin of the orange segments

Take oil in a bowl

add in sugar

and some vanilla essence

add in orange pulp

thick yogurt / curd

I happened to have some orange essence, so i added few
drops of them too..If you don't have this, just skip it

use a whisk and mix well

mix till the sugar is melted

Add in the flour mix

mix well

it will be a little thick batter

A close look, i love the orange pulp which is scattered
all over the cake..

Pour the batter on to the pan..it smells really orange
and citrusy, so yum

Bake them

Cool them down and cut into slices

Enjoy

This is a kind of cake, you will be enjoying with a cup of tea, coffee or milk

Hi Arthi
I was so excited the moment read your recipe of Eggless Orange cake that when I went back home from office I just tried the recipe carefully, but only to have a disaster cake, alas!!. It did not raise at all and the texture was like pudding. I guess liquid ingredients was more than required. I don't have the measuring cups. Kindly, give me your tips. I want to get an exact orange cake as it in ur post. Kindly help.

@AnonymousSorry to hear about your disaster. What i suggest you, for baking you need proper measuring cups and spoon. Because for baking measurements are more important. So please get measuring cups and spoons and use that for making cakes

Hurray!!! came out well. But the outer layer of the cake is dry and little hard (like crisp) and not as soft & moist as the inner part. Followed the same measurement... Not sure what went wrong... Adding more oil will bring the softness? Pls suggest. Planning to try ur orange pudding cake tomorrow...

Hi Aarthi,
I tried this recipe today. Only difference is i poured it in a little flat pan and baked, as i dont have a deep round bowl. Initially looked like it baked well. Thought it dint get as brown crust as shown in your pic, edges were brown, and it slightly started cracking on top, When inserted toothpick, it came out clean. But after cooling , i saw its slight wet at bottom. Its happening to all my cakes. :(I tried changing my silicone bakeware to nonstick aluminium bakeware also. Still the same. What is that is going wrong. Can u help me?
Regards,
Nandini

Hi Arathi, I have tried with the same preparation. After 25 minutes the top of the cake comes out brown and I remove and test with tooth pick, but the inside was not done. I baked for another 5 minutes the cake became flat and after cooling down and cutting I saw it is not done at the middle.
What is the problem. I preheat it with 180 degree convection mode and my oven automatically buzz after preheat.

Hi Aarthi
How are you?
I would like to try making your eggless orange cake recipe.
Your recipe says 1/2 cup orange pulp
1 big orange take out seeds and grind it coarsely- please can you explain how to grind the pulp.
Awaiting your reply.
Thank you

  Hi. In india we get a variety of orange in which we can peel off the skin and remove the whole orange fruit inside from it. I removed the peel from the orange as well as the seeds and ground it in a blender whole. Hence you can see the pulp. But you can just use 1/2 cup of orange juice instead.
