I am super glad to write this recipe recap of this month long baking marathon, where I posted all my eggless bakes. I started to participate in these month long marathons from April 2015, and with this year completion, I have hit a hat-trick.

Yayyyy!!! We are in the last recipe of this baking marathon. For Z, I am going to share popular pita bread from Lebanon – it’s the Zaatar bread or Zaktar bread. It is also known by the name manakish zaatar. It’s flatbread topped with Zaatar spice mix. To simply put, it’s the Middle Eastern delicacy similar to pizza/focaccia….
We are down to last two recipes. For Y, I am going to share Christmas cake roll recipe famous in Swiss, Belgium and other European countries. It’s the Yule Log cake or Yule log roll. Yule log is a delicious, moist vanilla cake rolled and shaped to look like a tree branch which then smothered with chocolate whipped cream frosting. This recipe is surely a feast for the eyes and mouth.

Today’s I am going to share a simple cookie recipe from China, to be exact it is the Chinese Butter Cookies. X is always a tricky alphabet in these A-Z blogging marathons. Last year I named my post with an ingredient starting with X which I used in my recipe. It was the vegan mango ice-cream. This year I am not going with the component name but the generic recipe name – Xiaodianxin. Xiaodianxin means cookies in Chinese.

After Gujiya, here is my second recipe from our India – Pav Buns or as the title says Whole Wheat Pav buns with vital wheat gluten. Homemade Pav buns were on my to-do list for quite a long time and what’s better than posting it during the blogging marathon? So here comes, whole wheat pav buns for the alphabet W.

If it was sheet cake yesterday, then it has to be cupcake today. :-) But instead of a cupcake, I am going to present you ramekins cake. Here is my single serving eggless upside down pineapple cake, prepared in ramekins. Again, I followed my sponge cake recipe went with the half the measure and this correctly yields four individual sized cakes.
…
For the alphabet S, I am going to present Snicker Doodle Cookies from Germany. I usually write down the recipe list for my entire mega marathon and the first one that I wrote was “S for Snicker Doodle Cookies.” This soft and chewy cinnamon flavored cookie is a treat for everyone. Even the non-sweet tooth person like me can gobble these cookies anytime, and I love this especially with milk. Ok, let’s blame it on the cinnamon. :-)
…
Today I am going to share one of the traditional cookies from Persia, precisely from Iran – Nan-E Nokhodchi | Persian Chick Pea Cookie with Cardamom and Pistachios. Chickpeas are popular in Persian cooking and this cookie is prepared with roasted chickpea flour. You know what, this is a vegan and gluten free cookie making it perfect for everyone. With the delicate flavors of cardamom and rose syrup and chick peas, this is sure a table winner.
…
I am going to share one of our favorite recipes today. It’s the Mandelbrot (in Yiddish) or Mandel Bread (in English) or Kamishbrot in Ukraine. The name might sound different, but it’s the nothing but simple almond bread. It is one of the famous Jewish cookies. In Yiddish, Mandel means almond and brot means bread. It’s twice baked bread, and the crunchier exterior makes it more similar to biscotti. Today I am going to share the Eggless version of the almond biscotti.
…
The next recipe that I am going to post is the Lemon Cheese Danish with Eggless lemon curd. Now you know why I posted the lemon curd recipe yesterday. I prepared this cheese Danish as a semi-homemade recipe with store bought puff pastry . So that makes it as a five ingredient recipe. Yes, all you need is puff pastry, cream cheese, sugar or condensed milk, lemon curd and some flour for dusting. With these ingredients, you can make a delicious Danish pastry.
…
Fruit curd is a dessert spread which is used as a topping or served as a side for bread and scones. The most popular one is the lemon curd which is widely employed in pies and tarts. It’s also a great replacement for jam and preserves. Traditionally it is prepared with eggs, butter, and the fruit. Today I am going to share an Eggless and Butterless vegan lemon curd.
…
The next recipe that I am going to share is the Jam Tarts from British. The Wikipedia has the perfect definition, and I can’t put it better than that. So quoting from there directly, “A tart is a baked dish consisting of a filling over a pastry base with an open top not covered with pastry.” Pie, Quiche, and other open pastries fall under this tart category. There are different types of tart namely fruit tart, egg tart, custard tart, jam tart and this list goes on. Today I am going to share Jam tart, precisely Strawberry jam tart.

Earlier I posted a cookie and a cake. But what if your kiddo asks for cake or cookie in the evening after coming from school? Or what if you have a sudden craving of sweet? Here is the solution – Single serving eggless microwave peanut butter cake – A rich, sweet and protein loaded mug cake with the goodness of peanut butter. You can find the single serving 1-minute microwave cookie recipe here.

Welcome to the three day blogging marathon, and this week theme is – “Kid’s delight | Cakes and Cookies”. Holiday season always calls for baking. That’s the main reason for me to chose this theme for kid’s delight event. Join me with you delicious sweet bakes. :-) The carrot saga continues. :-) Today I am going to present a simple and mildly spiced cookie – “Eggless Oatmeal Carrot Cookies”.
…
Welcome to the 25th day of Baking Mania. When I was going through my previous recipes, I realized that I didn’t post any cookies at all except for Madeleine. So I thought of posting one day. I am most comfortable with oatmeal cookies but then I thought let me step out my comfortable zone and this is the first time I am trying this. But why macadamia and white chocolate chip? Both me and vaandu love white chocolate chips and we can have that as snack itself. :-)
…
Welcome to the 9th day of Baking Mania. Thanks a lot for all your support. I never thought eggless bakes would become this popular. Thanks for all your comments, likes and messages. I don’t know why I didn’t post them earlier. Better late than never. For me, this baking event is a great learning process.

Welcome to the 7th day of Baking Mania. Today I thought of trying zebra cake. It’s the combination of vanilla and chocolate flavor. I am not sure if I can call this cake as zebra cake, that’s why included vanilla and cocoa cake. The base recipe was taken from Gayathri’s blog but the measurement got changed. This time not to blame the kiddo it was my fault. I miscalculated while converting from Gms to cups and added ¼ cup of cocoa powder. Also Gayathri recipe calls for 1/3 of cocoa mixture but because of the measurement mistake I took ½ of cocoa mixture and ½ of vanilla mixture. Because of increase in cocoa I had to add more milk too. . I thought it’s going to be sodappal only. But it was pure sheer luck that it turned out ok. As it had more chocolate flavor, it turned it into bite sized pieces and served along with vanilla ice cream and it became a huge hit.
So here is the recipe.
Ingredients:
Cocoa Mixture:
Vanilla Mix:
Welcome to the 4nd day of Baking Mania.
I was planning to post a microwave recipe today, then when I realized its Easter weekend, I thought why not try some carrot cake? I took the base recipe from here. This time when I prepared the cake I didn’t add any walnuts as I was running out of walnuts. Instead added a handful of raisins. Also I went with regular milk instead of soy milk. Used additional milk to brush the top to get a soft crust. Any cream frosting will be good with this cake or simply whipping cream with fresh fruits would do too. Here is the simple carrot cake recipe. Have a great long weekend.

Welcome to the 2nd day of Baking Mania.
You can involve kids in kitchen for the prep work before baking. Its fun to work with them and it a great activity time too. It gives them the chance to understand what we do and to appreciate food. When they help to prepare food feeding the same becomes comparatively easy. Vaandu loves to help in kitchen. At times its so overwhelming and his help will cause me double the amount of clean up work. But I need to agree its a total fun. Mostly for all the cake and cookies he will be my sous chef. Here is a simple cake recipe from both of us :-)
For second day, I thought of posting basic sponge cake which forms the base for zillion other cake recipes like mango layered cake, Tres lesche etc. I learnt this recipe from Kamalika, one of the blogger from BM group. It’s a simple eggless sponge cake. I did make couple of variations. Instead of using plain yogurt, I used vanilla flavored yogurt and skipped using milk for brushing. This cake can be whipped up easily and its one of vaandu’s favorite. He can have this cake with whipping cream and fruits.

Steps:

As I have mentioned before, I am a winter person. (Except for the day light saving). The holiday spirit here is amazing. Also the decorations, lighting, the smell of pine cones, apple, cinnamon, sage are lovely. We started celebrating Christmas when the kiddo turned 2. We set up the Christmas tree and do gift exchange. How can I celebrate Christmas without cookies and cakes, especially gingerbread cookies? It’s also a great activity for kids. Making them to cut the cookies and decorating them is always fun.

Everytime I walk into my grocery I see these different varieties of pumpkins, acorn squash, butternut squash and what not. So I thought why can’t try a pumpkin cookie for the road trip. I love pumpkin pie, so thought of using the same spices. Basically this recipe is inspired from here and instead of whole wheat flour, I am using quinoa flour. And I went ahead and made my own pumpkin puree. As I am using quinoa flour, added additional sugar too. Also I am not using the chocolate chips but you can use either white or brown chocolate chips or instead use walnuts also.
Prep Work: (If you are not using canned pumpkin puree)
Cut half of pumpkin, deseed and peel the skin. Chop them into chunks and microwave them for 5 minutes or let them boil for 5-7 minutes till they become tender. Let them cook and puree it.
Ingredients:
Steps:
Let it cool and pack them in an air tight container or ziploc and thats it you are all set.
It exactly tastes like pumpkin pie, so you can add whipping cream on top, if you want too. :-)

Yeah yeah.. you read the topic right. I finally B.A.K.E.D. It’s not that I don’t bake, but with the two moves in the last year, I kind of forgot about baking. The other main reason behind my baking is there were four ripe bananas hanging in the basket and its been a year since I made this bread. I took the base recipe from here but tried without eggs though. I like the idea of adding orange juice. And I have tried orange zest, lemon zest and also lemon juice instead of orange juice and it has turned out good.
So our favorite Starbucks special banana walnut bread is here without eggs.
Ingredients:
Steps:
Let it cool and thats it yummy banana bread is ready.
