We are taking a week off and going on a vacation to kashmir. We are leaving today night and will be back only on april 3rd, but no worries i have scheduled all the post, so you will be getting new post everyday. But i wont be able to reply to all your comments. So please bare with me, i will be replying all the mails after a week. And you know how excited i am, so thrilled to check out the whole new world. I will be sharing my experience with you all when i come back, i am planning to do a entire post on the foods which i explored and enjoyed there, OFCOURSE YOU KNOW I WILL!
CHECK OUT THIS QUICK VIDEO:
Pictorial:
Take all your ingredients |
Start by sifting the dry ingredients…Take flour in a sifter |
Add in baking soda / cooking soda |
and some baking powder |
sieve it up |
set this aside |
I took a round cake pan, oiled them well and sprinkled some flour over it, coated it on all sides and tapped off the excess |
This recipe calls for orange juice, but i took a big orange, Peeled it, Removed the seeds and Ground it coarsely . You dont have to remove the skin of the orange segments |
Take oil in a bowl |
add in sugar |
and some vanilla essence |
add in orange pulp |
add in thick yogurt / curd |
I happened to have some orange essence, so i added few drops of them too..If you dont have this, just skip it |
use a whisk and mix well |
mix till the sugar is melted |
Add in the flour mix |
mix well |
it will be a little thick batter |
A close look, i love the orange pulp which is scattered all over the cake.. |
Pour the batter on to the pan..it smells really orangy and citrusy, so yum |
Bake them |
Cool them down and cut into slices |
Enjoy |
This is a kind of cake, you will be enjoying with a cup of tea, coffee or milk |
I wish you safe trip. Have a restful and enjoyable holidays. God Bless You and your family.

Thank you so much!! In case, I don't wish to use the orange pulp part and instead just make the plain cake with maybe cut peals… will it work?? Enjoy
@vishnu rastogiif you have convection mode, then you can make
@Manvitha Kothayou can make, but it gives dense cake
@Anonymoususe 1 egg instead of curd.
@Anonymousorange juice will make it soft.
@Sujithrano if you have convection oven you can make
@Anonymousyes u can use musambi
@Anonymousno change in temp
@Anonymousit depends on the size of cake pan, if it is big one, it will take the same time. Insert a tooth pick to check whether the cake is done.
@sindhunot sure about making this in microwave.
@Anonymousyes u can bake it in pressure cooket
@Anonymousyes it will work, use milk instead of juice
Hi Aarthi..thanks for sharing such brilliant recepies which are easy to make and healthy.

Hi Arthi
I was so excited the moment read your recipe of Eggless Orange cake that when I went back home from office I just tried the recipe carefully, but only to have a disaster cake, alas!!. It did not raise at all and the texture was like pudding. I guess liquid ingredients was more than required. I don't have the measuring cups. Kindly, give me your tips. I want to get an exact orange cake as it in ur post. Kindly help.
@AnonymousSorry to hear about your disaster. What i suggest you, for baking you need proper measuring cups and spoon. Because for baking measurements are more important. So please get measuring cups and spoons and use that for making cakes
Mera bhi cake accha nahi bana
Hurray!!! came out well. But the outer layer of the cake is dry and little hard (like crisp) and not as soft & moist as the inner part. Followed the same measurement… Not sure what went wrong… Adding more oil will bring the softness? Pls suggest. Planning to try ur orange pudding cake tomorrow…
@Breeze Pu must have over baked it. And as the cakes cool it will get soft
Hi Aarthi,
I tried this recipe today. Only difference is i poured it in a little flat pan and baked, as i dont have a deep round bowl. Initially looked like it baked well. Thought it dint get as brown crust as shown in your pic, edges were brown, and it slightly started cracking on top, When inserted toothpick, it came out clean. But after cooling , i saw its slight wet at bottom. Its happening to all my cakes. :(I tried changing my silicone bakeware to nonstick aluminium bakeware also. Still the same. What is that is going wrong. Can u help me?
Regards,
Nandini
@nandini nagasuriI hope it may be because of the setting. do you preheat the oven before baking.
yes, I preheat too, as per instructions given in manual..
@nandini nagasurithen may be the sugar is not melted properly
Hi Arthi, can i try pineapple instead of orange for the same receipe? Should i add pineapple as puree or cooked with sugar in a thick consistency? I also hve pineapple essence i wiil try adding the same as u added orange essence. Is there any other change i should make please tell me to get a pineapple cake?
@sindhu rejiuse pineapple puree.
Hi

wonderful cake. i just made in half hr. coz the picyorial was very clear.
thanks aarthi
That cake looks delicious! If I subscribe to your blog, do I get one of this each month in my house? haha, just kidding, great cake.
For what should we keep in Convection Mode..???
@Nishthause same temp and same timing
Hi if I make cupcakes using this recipe, how long should I bake them? Btw, your recipes are all so detailed and I love them!
Hi cake looks amazing any substitute fr curd?
@uzma khanno sub for yogurt
@Arthi Rit depends on the size..check anywhere from 12 mins
Hi Arathi, I have tried with the same preparation. After 25 minutes the top of the cake comes out brown and I remove and test with tooth pick, but the inside was not done. I baked for another 5 minutes the cake became flat and after cooling down and cutting I saw it is not done at the middle.
What is the problem. I preheat it with 180 degree convection mode and my oven automatically buzz after preheat.
Hi Arathi,I follow your blog as each bake looks so tempting. Wanted to try this recipe too.but a little confused as you have mentioned that your cup measures 240 gram.and yet in recipe you have taken 1 cup flour/120 gram maida.plz tell me what weight should I use.120gm or 240 GM.thanks.
@Bina Patelweigh as mentioned in the recipe. Because each ingredient weighs diff in a cup. If you have a 240 ml cup you can use that
Just baked it now and as it came out from my oven it is almost fully eaten up. Thank you for the easy and delicious recipe. Please keep up the good work.
hi Aarthi..could you please tell me what would be the measurements of ingrients if i take 2 cups of maida?? I have the big size baking mould thats why
hi
