Eggless chocolate walnut cake

Eggless chocolate walnut cake is a yummy dessert. You will never go wrong with it. Basic eggless chocolate cake decorated with walnuts  or any nuts of your choice makes your day. Have a slice with your morning coffee or have it with ice cream for dinner. It is an amazing recipe. You can even replace chocolate with coffee and enjoy your coffee walnut slice. As coffee is not so good for kids, I still prefer the choco-nut cake.

How to make eggless chocolate cake?

Baking is an amazing therapy. Nothing is better than moist chocolate cake. It helps you de-stress. However, most cakes either have egg or maida. Either they are too creamy  or totally dry, when bought from the market. What do you do when eggs don't suit you? When you want to avoid eggs even if they do?

Make your own using this below recipe. You will not be disappointed.

It helps me avoid the extra sugar, preservatives and cream from the commercial preparations. You can also make eggless chocolate cake with condensed milk if you like. I find it a bit dense and extra sweet. I prefer the butter milk version. When you have a kid at home, you want to give them healthy food. Making cakes with wholewheat/atta is much better than plain flour/maida. Plain flour is devoid of fiber and thus not good for the gut. When you make it at home, you can also add sugar according to your palate and avoid the extra sugar in your diet.

Notes

Due to the usage of whole meal flour,'baking soda' instead of 'baking powder' is required in this recipe.

The batter might look a bit thick due to the use of wholemeal flour.

Curdling the milk with vinegar helps the cake to be more soft when it works with baking soda.

The sugar used is powdered after measure. if you powder the sugar then measure it, it will not be that sweet.

How to use your walnuts ?

Roast them with some salt and olive oil for some munchies.

Make the yummy eggless apple muffins for a sweet fix.

Walnut fudge or akhrot burfi is a great option too.

Banana walnut cake helps you use all those over-ripe bananas instead of throwing them out.
