This cake won rave reviews! It is a dense cake, somewhat like a pound cake (if such a thing is even possible without any eggs). The recipe I started with had reviews suggesting using only 3/4 cup of butter, which I’ll probably try next time.
Ingredients
- * 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (cake flour is even better)
- * 2 teaspoons baking powder
- * 1 teaspoon baking soda
- * 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- * 1 cup pureed strawberries
- * 2 tablespoons sugar
- * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- * 1 teaspoon strawberry flavoring
- * 1 cup melted butter
Instructions
-
-Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour a 9×13 inch pan or (2) 8″ rounds.
-Sift together the flour, baking powder and baking soda into a large bowl. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda. Make a well in the center and pour in the sweetened condensed milk, strawberry puree, vanilla, strawberry flavoring and melted butter. Mix well and pour into pan(s).
-Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes for a 9×13 pan, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.
Please add the 2 TBL sugar to the strawberries! Sorry I left that out of the instructions.
And, yet another note about this recipe: To be safe, you might want to add a tablespoon of white vinegar to ensure enough acid. :)
Sounds delicious! My daughter is allergic to eggs so Im always looking for good recipes to try for her birthday cakes! Thanks for posting :)
hi! i was just wondering if i didn't want to make it a strawberry cake (although it sounds delicious!) but wanted it to just be a vanilla cake w/out eggs? have you tried that??
I'm with you Janerss. I'm looking for an egg free cake that can be stacked, but I don't want strawberry.
I am in need of a pineapple cake for my nieces birthday. She is allergic to egg as well. So, I am going to try to substitute pineapple for the strawberry. Thanks!
The original version of this cake uses orange juice instead of strawberry puree. I bet the pineapple did work as a substitute, since it is so acidic. There are other vanilla eggless cake recipes. I think this particular recipe needs something like OJ, pineapple or strawberries for the acid.
My grandaughter who is 2, is allergic to egg, & we do alot of baking,,,so we will make this tommorrow:) Thanks for the recepe,,,
Hi. Do you think this cake will hold up well under icing and fondant? I have to make a couple of purse cakes for twin 11 year olds and want to make sure. Thanks!! :)
Thanks for sahring....i'll surely try ...
Is strawberry flavor and extract are same ?
I wanted to ask if anyone’s tried this recipe. My niece’s birthday is coming Andy I’m really thinking of making this one as she wants a strawberry cake and isn’t allergic to eggs. Any suggestions will be really helpful.
* correction - is allergic to eggs. (Typo error)
