No Egg Chocolate Suji Cake – Tutti Frutti Pound Cake

Hello Friends!

Cakes are everyone’s favourite and are a must for every occasion. Be it a morning snack or evening tea-time cake, a wedding or as mood-freshening, I can never say a NO to having a slice or two! Do you feel the same? Yes… Cheers!

I just love to be in the process of trying & testing new cake recipes in a bit healthier manner. Thus, I have found that a suji cake recipe easily fits into it. Suji has vitamin B, iron and magnesium. It provides energy and good for heart health too. Hence, a suji cake eggless makes a perfect choice for your sweet tooth.

I have prepared my chocolate suji cake in oven. You can bake on your gas stove or induction heater in a kadai or using a pressure cooker too.

In my sooji cake recipe in Hindi, you can see I have decorated it with tutti frutti and it is ‘eggless’ too. I have used curd in it as a binding agent. Simply I just cannot imagine a sooji cake without curd! The reason why all-purpose flour is used in my cake recipe is it allows the suji cake to hold its shape firmly.

Let’s get started with the recipe.
