I love everything Cinnamon and this Eggless Cinnamon cake is the proof of that.
The elegance of this cake is in the beautiful delicate swirls of cinnamon running through the middle.
Very often, vegetarian eggless cakes are a pale version of the actual stuff.Usually- hard, tasteless, sometimes pasty, weirdly greasy and with a bad aftertaste because of all the artificial additives.This cake though is nothing of that sort.It has a beautiful crumb,a spongy airy texture and a taste that can easily rival most cakes with eggs.
It’s made entirely with easily available pantry ingredients and if you don’t tell people they will not know that this cake is EGGLESS
Isn’t there something so romantic about this cake?
I could eat it at anytime of the day and in any form! In fact, Cinnamon Swirl Cake can be served while it’s still warm, right out of the oven(well almost) so you don’t have to wait for it to cool down but it is also great at room temperature or cold.
Tips to bake the best Eggless Cinnamon Cake
Though, I have made this cake in a bundt pan but it can be easily made in a loaf or a cake pan.The baking time differs based on the size and shape of the cake pan and off course on the oven, so be on the alert from 25 minutes onwards.Also ,If you are a new baker, my article – Baking for Beginners-Bake your first Cake will be immensely helpful in understanding and acing baking.
It’s a quick and easy to make vegetarian cake recipe- which pleases everyone!I have tried this recipe multiple times and it has never failed me.
Note- While sprinkling the cinnamon sugar- remember that the cake will rise and the swirls will show in layers.

nice recipe
thank you so much!
Great recipe. I realized I had to convert the 180 degrees to 350*F, takes about 20 minutes uncovered and about 30 minutes covered to fully bake. Could be different in different ovens. VERY delicious!!! Everyone loved it. Have you tried this with gluten free flour? I wondered how it would taste.
Thankyou catherine.I am glad you enjoyed it.

May I know what’s the purpose of using buttermilk when your recipe also uses yogurt / curd ?
hey! The curdled milk or buttermilk is for the chemical reaction and the yogurt is an egg replacement.
