Eggless Butter Cake

Sometimes i dont per to prepare my cakes with butter, so alternatively i go for half quantity of butter along with oil,but for our this months Eggless Baking Challenge Gayathri,the brain child of this monthly event shared this butter cake with eggs. As its an eggless baking challenge,obviously we have to prepare this cake without eggs. Eventhough this cake goes for butter, as main ingredient this cake was simply awesome, the final touch was the topping mixture prepared with cinnamon powder, brown sugar and butter spreaded over the baked the cake turned out this cake absolutely flavourful.

I used yogurt as the egg replacer, eventhough my first thought was to prepare this cake with condensed milk. This eggless butter cake turned out super spongy and buttery. We enjoyed having this cake warm with a cup of tea for our snacks but my lil one didnt liked the raisins in this cake,so he just removed the raisins and had his slice of cake happily.Kids are super smart na, that y i usually make a puree of the raisins while making my bakes with them,so that he wont notice the addition of this healthy raisins.Sending to 60days of Christmas hosted by Priya and Divya
