FAQS

  1. How do I make an eggless plum cake moist and flavorful?

    To ensure your eggless plum cake is moist and flavorful, use high-quality butter and mix in a variety of dried fruits. The combination of milk and vanilla extract adds richness, while the spices like cinnamon and nutmeg enhance the overall flavor profile. Make sure to cream the butter and sugar well to incorporate air, which helps achieve a light texture.

  2. What are some suitable substitutions for ingredients in an eggless plum cake?

    If you're looking for substitutions in your eggless plum cake, you can replace all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier option. For a dairy-free version, use almond milk or coconut milk instead of regular milk, and substitute butter with coconut oil or a vegan butter alternative. You can also use maple syrup or agave nectar in place of sugar for a natural sweetener.

  3. How should I store my eggless plum cake to keep it fresh?

    To keep your eggless plum cake fresh, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to keep it longer, you can refrigerate it for up to a week. For longer storage, consider freezing the cake. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil before placing it in the freezer, where it can last for up to 3 months.

  4. What are some great pairings for serving eggless plum cake?

    Eggless plum cake pairs wonderfully with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert. You can also serve it with a cup of spiced chai or coffee to enhance the flavors. For a festive touch, consider garnishing with fresh fruits or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

  5. How long should I bake an eggless plum cake for optimal results?

    Bake your eggless plum cake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 60 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Keep an eye on it towards the end of the baking time to prevent over-baking.
