The eggless cake is undoubtedly one of the most sought after desserts these days but it is also a dessert that I love very much, because it is easy, good, but also light. Can we say less calorie? I know we don't like it dieting in fact I'm going to tell you how to make a delicious chocolate cake, but this cake without eggs but also without butter we can still call it a light cake.
The basic dough of the cake without eggs and without butter lends itself to many variations, this you see is chocolate but you can really indulge both in the ingredients and in the aromas: for example you can replace the 00 flour with a rice flour, or replace one start with almond flour, use vanillin, orange peel and so on.
Cake without butter and egg base dough
Ingredients (for a cake with a 20 cm mold)
350 g of 00 flour
150 g of sugar
250 g of milk
60 g of sunflower oil
16 g of baking powder (or 10 g of baking soda, or 16 g of cream of tartar)
lemon peel
1 pinch of salt (if you put baking soda do not put salt)
Mix the sifted flour and baking powder. Add the sugar and the grated lemon peel. Then separately mix milk with oil. Finally pour the liquids into the flour, mixing very well and without making lumps (just a fork but if you have a whisk better).
If it seems too solid, add a couple of spoons of milk.
Put in a mold with parchment paper and turn on the oven at 180 °. Bake for the first 20 minutes in the oven at 180 °, then lower to 170 ° and cook for another 40 minutes.
Tips
Do not open the oven for the first 20/30 minutes to check if the cake is growing because the change in temperature would immediately make it sag.
Pie from the oven should be left to cool for 15 minutes and then eaten.
If you have to keep it, put it inside the film so as not to dry it.

50 g chocolate chips
The procedure is the same, mix the dry components (in this case flour, yeast and cocoa) and then the liquid ones. Add the liquids to the flour, the lemon peel (here the orange peel is very good) and only when everything is well blended adding the chocolate chips.
Tips
Flour the chocolate chips before putting them in the dough so they will not fall to the bottom.
Add only half of the drops and the other half put it on top of the cake, always before baking.
