Sponge Cake Without Oven | m&m Vanilla cake in katori with detailed photo and video recipe – This sponge Cake without oven is amazing because of the taste, textures, and amazing flavor. It is not only a beautiful cake that does not require an oven or a pressure cooker.


This sponge Cake without oven was also super-duper easy to prepare and I loved experimenting with the whole no-bake concept! Plus, I feel, in the hustle-bustle of today, everyone is extremely busy and engaged to invest to proper baking processes. As the world is developing, more and more ways are coming up to save time.

For kids always favorite M&M gems, so for colorful and attractive in cake i have added m&m gems in cake batter. Whether you have a reason to celebrate or not, this soft and chewy M&M CAKE is the perfect dessert to enjoy with friends and family. 

Key Ingredients in Cake batter

1. Baking powder : While baking powder makes it raise during baking, giving it a light and fluffy texture. 

2. Flour : Normally in basic cakes, every one will use maida / all purpose flour, for healthy option we can also use whole wheat flour. 

3. Eggs : I use 4 whole eggs in my cake recipes. This cake can be transformed into a Moist White Cake by using egg . (For eggless we can use Yogurt/curd in place of eggs. I have made eggless cakes also in my blog.)

4. Oil or Butter : I used canola oil, as it is what I had on hand, but you can also use vegetable oil, sunflower oil, etc. For the best tasting vanilla cake, stick to canola oil or vegetable oil. We can also use butter, while using butter make sure it should be at room temperature or melted butter.

5. Granulated sugar or Powdered Sugar : In this recipe i have used powdered sugar to fasten the process, we can use granulated sugar or brown sugar or castor sugar. While using granulated sugar, beat eggs and sugar well. Make sure sugar is completely dissolve in eggs. Or if using butter, beat butter and sugar well and dissolve sugar completely.

NOTES You may reduce the sugar to 3/4 cup if you prefer a less sweet cake. 

6. Vanilla extract : Try to use a good quality vanilla extract, as opposed to a cheaper type, or imitation vanilla. In the second, add the vanilla extract, and in the final one.

Preparing Cake in Frypan


This no-oven process basically requires one to not provide direct heat of the stove fire to the cake because that will burn it. This No-oven Vanilla Cake recipe needs you to use the process of indirect and slow heating that actually bake a beautiful and spongey vanilla cake.

In this recipe of the No-oven Vanilla Cake, you need to incorporate ingredients together only until mixed. If you whisk and mix too much after adding the flours, you will actually beat the air out of the batter. This will render your cake a very damp and dense look and taste.
