This Eggless Vanilla Pound Cake or Eggless Loaf Cake turned out to be the best cake I remember baking ever. It has the finest crumb, with melt in the mouth texture.

Eggless Vanilla Pound Cake

210 gms All Purpose Flour

150 gms Sugar (3/4 cup)

100 gms Milk Powder (3/4 cup)

tsp Baking Powder

tsp Baking Soda

tsp Vanilla Essence

gms Butter (Unsalted & Soft)

120 ml Curds (thick and unsour /Greek Yogurt (1/2 cup))

120 ml Milk (1/2 cup)

120 ml Water (1/2 cup)

Keep the butter at room temperature until soft.

Take the butter in a mixing bowl and using an electric beater, cream for 3 to 4 mins. Then add the sugar and continue creaming until both mixes well.

Add curds, milk and beat for another 2 mins.

Add vanilla essence and water, beat in for a min.

For the Wet Ingredients:

Sift the flour with baking powder and baking soda, add the milk powder and gently mix well.

For the Dry Ingredients:

Add half of the dry ingredients to the bowl and beat till well mixed and creamy.

Add the remaining flour and fold gently using a spatula.

Mixing the batter together

Take a loaf pan and butter it really well, sprinkle with flour and coat on all sides. Tap off the excess flour and set aside.

Pour this entire batter in the loaf pan

Preheat the oven at 170 C.

I baked at 170 C for 40 mins, then at 155 C for 15 mins. Anytime after 35 mins, you can check if the center is done or not

Remove from oven and let it cool for 15 mins.

Now remove from tin and cool. Slice and serve.

Baking the Cake

This pound cake is wonderfully rich and buttery. It has a gorgeous golden brown crust and a nostalgic aroma of vanilla.

Vanilla Bean Pound Cake

(200 grams) sugar

eggs, room temperature

vanilla bean (or 2 tsp vanilla extract)

(250 grams) all-purpose flour,

Preheat the oven to 350F. Butter and flour an 8&#215;4&#8243; or 9&#215;5&#8243; loaf pan.

Using an electric mixer or stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat the butter for about 1 minute until creamy.

Slowly add in the sugar, and beat until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes)

Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well in between. Scrape the bowl as needed. Then add in the vanilla bean seeds, mix well again.

On low speed, add in the flour and mix until just combined.

Bake for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Check at 45 minutes and loosely cover the cake with foil if browning too quickly.

Do you have a better idea for a Bundt Pan?

My super moist vegan pound cake (aka vegan madeira cake or vegan loaf cake) with the most perfect tight crumb and mellow vanilla or lemon flavour.

Vegan Pound Cake (Lemon or Vanilla)

sugar (aka superfine sugar)

170 ml vegetable oil (or sub

170 ml soy milk (unflavoured and unsweetened, at room temperature)

tsp vanilla extract

tsp white wine vinegar (or sub for any white vinegar)

g flour all purpose flour)

flour

tsp baking powder

tsp fine sea salt

lemon

tsp lemon extract

lemon juice

Grease and line a 22x12cm loaf tin with baking parchment. Preheat the oven to 165°C (325°F) fan/convection.

In a measuring jug or the cup of a blender, blend together the caster sugar, vegetable oil, soy milk, vanilla extract, and white wine vinegar until smooth and slightly thickened.

In a large bowl, sift together the plain white flour, cake flour, baking powder, and fine sea salt.

Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

To Make the Vanilla Version

In a small bowl, place the caster sugar and the lemon zest. Rub together with your finger tips until fragrant.

In a measuring jug or the cup of a blender, blend together the lemon fragrant caster sugar, vegetable oil, soy milk, vanilla extract, lemon extract and lemon juice until smooth and slightly thickened.

To Make the Lemon Version

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover the tin with a small baking sheet or a makeshift top from aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the cover and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes. Transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely to room temperature.
