Eggless Ragi Choco Chip Cake Recipe

-Here comes one more random attempt with millet flour in baking without raising agents. I wanted to check the result of not using baking powder/soda in baking. My cookies were 100% successful. This cake got slightly dunked in. And I believe it is because of not using raising agents or curd. I am looking for experts to share their opinion on this. Here is the story of this bake 🙂

Eggless Ragi Choco Chip Cake Recipe

I ended up burning the top of my cupcakes but successfully made this cake with my little ones help. My boy is so keen about what mommy cooks for him for every meal. He urges me to plan my every meal, every snack of the week well ahead. He has his own choices and he would love to assist me in cooking especially baking. This was planned to be eggless choco chip cupcakes with ragi and flax seeds without raising agents. I accidentally altered the mode and extended the timing with no proper knowledge and burnt the top of cupcakes.

So I poured the second part of the batter to a cake pan,LO did the mixing, garnishing and converted it to tutti fruity cake 🙂 He removed the burnt top of the cupcakes and stored them for this snack box for the coming week. How much should we learn from these kiddos?! I even forgot the exact measurements as this was made long back. I have given the procedure and other details for both cake and cup cake here.

My Observations:

For cupcakes keep checking after 7 th minute.

Using a wet cloth to wrap the tray after taking out of OTG helps in getting the cake out clean and perfect.

Dip the knife in hot water to slice the cake perfectly.

Sieving the dry ingredients is a major step which prevents disasters.

Wait for atleast an hour before slicing the cake.

Go through the manual to fix the preheat temperature and timings. My OTG suggested preheating at 250 degrees C for 10 minutes.

The timing might vary from 25-40 minutes depending on the oven used and tray used. Have a check using a toothpick after 25 minutes.

Be generous in using butter to grease the pan.

The same cake can be made in a pressure cooker. Please check the steps in my wholegrain cake and oats banana cake recipes


The cake stays good for 5 days at room temperature.

I used gingelly oil and evaporated cane sugar.

This can be offered to babies above one year(milk & sugar, salt should be avoided for babies below one year)
