Eggless chocolate walnut cake is a yummy dessert.You will never go wrong with it.
Have a slice with your morning coffee or have it with ice cream for dinner.It is an amazing recipe.
Baking is an amazing therapy.
It helps you de-stress.
However,most cakes either have egg,or maida or are too creamy 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.When you have a kid at home,you want to give them healthy food.Making cakes Ewith 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.

Hi
Thank u for sharing a whole wheat cake recipe.
Can oil be replaced by butter. If yes, what should be the measurements for butter.
Thanks
Yes , you may replace that by 250gm butter/1 cup butter. The butter needs to be a room temperature .You may beat the butter with sugar first and add the flour etc later .Also the texture with butter is a bit different and you may need to re-heat the cake before serving as the butter will make the cake hard in cold weather.
