Mango cake recipe | vegan mango cake | no maida/all-purpose flour, no sugar cake recipe
This vegan mango cake is a delightful treat that redefines indulgence with a healthier twist. Instead of regular sugar, we’ve used jaggery, which imparts a natural sweetness and a rich, caramel-like flavor. The base of the cake is made with wheat flour, providing a wholesome and nutritious alternative to all-purpose flour. To ensure it’s entirely plant-based, we’ve substituted dairy milk with soy milk, which perfectly complements the tropical essence of mango. The result is a moist and flavorful cake that is both indulgent and guilt-free, perfect for any occasion. Enjoy a slice of this vegan mango cake, crafted with wholesome ingredients and packed with natural goodness.
