Ingredients
- 1.5 cups flour (all-purpose)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup oil (vegetable or any neutral oil)
- 1 cup curd (plain yogurt)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vinegar (white or apple cider vinegar)
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
Method
- Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper. - Combine Wet Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, curd, and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla essence and mix well. - Sift in the Dry Ingredients:
Sift the flour, baking powder, and baking soda into the wet mixture. Gently fold everything together, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be smooth and thick. - Add the Vinegar:
Stir in the vinegar as the final ingredient. This will react with the baking soda to help the cake rise, giving it a fluffy texture. - Pour and Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. - Cool and Serve:
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy as is, or top with your favorite frosting!
