Eggless Arabian Cake

I get excited whenever I bake an eggless cake, could be that in the past years my attempts to baking eggless cakes failed big time and because I wasn’t as knowledgeable as now with regards to baking techniques. But today I made a beauty and called it Eggless Arabian Cake.

Eggless Arabian Cake

It is frustrating to have food allergy and the frustration increases when you are allergic to something which is part of many dishes, especially desserts. Yes! I am talking about eggs.

Today’s dessert is very popular among Arabs in the Gulf region. It’s called Khunfaroosh. Usually, this dessert is deep fried, not only that but the batter was made of flour sugar and …. You guessed it, eggs!

The eggs are the base of this dessert, and that is the challenge. Through the years, the cake version was developed but  the eggs were always the main ingredient in it. This Eggless Arabian Cake is the answer 🙂

My recipe tastes exactly like the authentic version of this dessert, and you will not help but think there must be eggs in this Eggless Arabian cake. Beside the amazing taste, this cake has a heavenly aroma, coming from the combination of cardamom and saffron.
