Tutti Frutti Cake Recipe Without Eggs

Sifting dry ingredients

1. Take a sieve. Keep a mixing bowl below the sieve. In the sieve add the all-purpose flour, salt, cinnamon powder and baking powder. 
2. Sift all the dry ingredients.
3. Now add the tutti frutti.
4. Simply mix the tutti frutti with the flour so that they get coated with the flour.
5. Grease a loaf pan with butter and oil and keep aside. You can even line the pan with butter paper or parchment paper. Also preheat oven at 180 degrees Celsius/356 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.

Making sugar solution

1. In a bowl take sugar and water.
2. Mix the sugar with water till all the sugar granules are dissolved. 
3. After all of the sugar has dissolved, add melted butter or oil. You can melt butter in a small pan and keep it ready. With a whisk mix briskly for 2 to 3 minutes till the oil has mixed evenly with the water.
4. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or scrape half of a vanilla bean and add the tiny seeds in the solution. Mix again well. Keep this sugar solution aside.

Making curd mixture

1. In another bowl take fresh curd or yogurt, water and vinegar. 
2. You can use apple cider vinegar or white vinegar. I have used apple cider vinegar. You can also use lemon juice instead of vinegar. Mix very well.
3. Now add baking soda. Stir to combine so that the baking soda is mixed evenly.
4. You will see the mixture frothing and bubbling.

Making cake batter

1. Quickly add the sugar solution to the sifted dry ingredients.
2. Then immediately add the bubbling curd solution. 
3. Mix gently to a smooth batter with light pressure from the hands on the whisk. Do not overdo the mixing. You can even fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Tiny lumps are fine in the batter. 
4. Pour the cake batter in the greased or lined cake pan.
5. Gently tap the cake pan on the kitchen table top once or twice.

Baking tutti frutti cake
