Eggless Milkmaid Cake

This is an eggless milkmaid cake that I baked the other day. I have used milkmaid for the first time while baking and decided that henceforth will use milkmaid as it adds a delicious flavor to the baking. I also added Quaker oats that I bought recently but didn't quite like it for breakfast so decided to use it in my baking instead.

You can also add cocoa for a chocolatey taste. In my version didn't add as Joy is not too fond of chocolate but for all chocoholics this is a good option. Here goes:

Milkmaid - 1 tin of 400 gm
Butter - 100 gm (I use Amul but you can use the unsalted variety)
Flour - 2 cups
Aerated drink - 100 gm (Thums Up, Pepsi or even plain soda)
Cocoa Powder - 3 tbsp
Baking powder - 2 tsp
Vanilla essence
Oats - 1 cup

- Mix the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder in a bowl
- Mix the milkmaid and the butter in another bowl till the butter dissolves completely.
- Fold in the dry mixture and the soda bit by bit until its completely mixed with the milkmaid and butter.
- Add the vanilla essence.
- Add the mixture to the mixie and run it for about 2 minutes.
- Add the oats and mix some more.
- Grease a baking dish with butter and add the cake mixture to it. Sprinkle some oats on top for a crunchy taste.
- Heat the oven to 200 degree and bake for about 35-40 minutes.
- Keep checking with a fork to check if it completely baked. If the fork comes out clean, the cake is ready.



Forgot to click a pic immediately after it was baked but did have some crumbs left. Agree, it doesn't look that good but those who tasted it know that appearances can be deceitful. :))
