Merry christmas wishes to all friends...Can you believe that this gorgeous cake is prepared with silken tofu as egg subsitute,also this cake doesnt need any special preparation to make out..yep,you doesnt need to soak the fruits and nuts for making this cake, just whisk all the ingredients and add the finely chopped fruits and nuts for making this cake..Needless to say that this cake turned out super spongy,absolutely delicious and definitely moist..A prefect cake for this festive season and definitely an incredible bake to enjoy without any hesitation..I prepared specially this cake for our xmas celebration and we loved it.




2cups All purpose flour
1cup Silken tofu (pureed)
1tsp Baking powder
1cup Sugar
1/4tsp Salt
1/4cup Milk
3/4cup Butter (room temperature)
1tsp Vanilla extract
1/2tsp Cinnamon powder
1/4cup Nuts (cashews,almonds & walnuts)
1/4cup Dry fruits(raisins,cherries,apricots and dates)
Few almond flakes

Preheat the oven to 350F..Sift together the flour,baking powder,cinnamon powder and salt in a bowl,keep aside...Cream the butter and sugar together until they turn soft, add the milk,vanilla and beat again well.

Add the pureed tofu to the wet ingredients and dont beat,mix it with a wooden spoon,add gradually dry ingredients,fruits and nuts to the wet ingredients,the batter will be semi solid consistency,spread the batter in a prepared loaf pan..Sprinkle the almond flakes over the batter and bake for 30-35minutes in middle rack until a skewer inserted comes out clean..

Let the cake cools completely and slice it as per your need..
