Healthy Cake..

When you say “Cake”, all one can see before their eyes is lots of maida, cream, beating of eggs till fluffy or separating of eggs, etc…But I am sure all mothers whose kids are cake lovers will definitely love this recipe…

      And yes cakes can be made from atta also…

     I got this recipe on a Marathi cookery show. What I loved in this recipe is that no maida, no beating of eggs till fluffy & with carrots & apple. I loved this recipe at once. So now its once-in-a-month, this cake is baked at our house… everyone loves it……

    When I 1^st made it everyone was shocked to learn that it was made with minimal amount of maida… you surely will love this cake…
