EGGLESS WHOLEWHEAT BUNDT CAKE

                     

Let me not start with those cliched words of how poor a baker I am, and that I still try my hands on it. Let me be positive and say I am learning each day to do better and the whole experience is an enriching one. Not only that, but as a person I have become a bit more of positive, looking at things in a newer perspective. Thanks to a chanting practice I am doing on my friend Pampa's recommendation, life seems happier. Another friend Chutu / Madhuchanda too recommends it, she is into a lot of spiritual things. 

Every week I do some kind of baking, with a growing teen at home we need to keep a variety of food in store, the mamma thing prefers  homemade ones. Today, I wished to blog about this Eggless Wholewheat Bundt Cake that I prepared yesterday evening. I have poured all of my heart doing it. When we do something with love, it cannot go wrong. Although we are not chocolate cake or ice-cream lovers, I enjoyed doing it.

I wished to weave a beautiful story surrounding this Eggless Wholewheat Bundt Cake but life has taught me speaking less gets us peace of mind. Let certain things be treasured as memories and we move forward with new hopes, aspirations. I prepared this bundt cake with wholewheat for two reasons.... I was running out of enough amount of refined flour. Secondly, I wanted to see how a whole wheat cake turns out. I decorated them with white chocolate coins and strawberries as I had them in store. I wished to share with everyone today itself how simply we can do it. I tried to provide stepwise pictures for it. Let us do it.

INGREDIENTS :

Whole Wheat Flour : 2 big cups
Baking Powder : 2tsp
Cocoa Powder : 3-4 tbsp
Sugar : 1/2 cup
Condensed Milk : 100-150 ml
Full Cream Milk : 1/3 cup
Vinegar : 2 tsp
Butter : 1/2cup [softened at room temperature]
Oil : 1/2 small tea cup
Vanilla Essence : 1-2tsp

METHOD :

Preheat the oven to 180*C.

Take the wheat flour, baking powder and cocoa powder in a large bowl and mix together well.

In another one, take the butter and sugar and beat well until both are well incorporated.

Now add the milk and beat well. Add the condensed milk. Beat well. Add the vinegar and beat well again. The mix looks as below.

Now little by little add the flour mix and keep beating. It will look as below.

After all the flour has been poured in, we will beat further for 5 minutes. The mix will look as below.

Now we will grease the cake tin with few drops of oil. Pour in the cake batter onto the mould. It looks as below.

Bake at 180*C for 40-42 minutes in convection mode. At this stage you need to adjust the time according to your oven.

Let us enjoy it with tea or with a scoop of ice cream.
