Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cup Whole Wheat Flour atta (approx. 400g), whole
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon ground
- 1/2 tsp Ginger ground
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup Jaggery firmly packed
- 3/4 cup Yogurt
- 1/2 cup Refined Vegetable Oil
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Fruit Juice apple, or mixed fruit juice, orange
Fruits & Nuts
Optional
- 2-3 tbsp Milk only add if the batter is too thick
Instructions
Prepare the Dried Fruits
- Soak the mixed dried fruits in the fruit juice for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to plump them up.
Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger. Ensure there are no lumps.
Prepare the Wet Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, combine the jaggery, yogurt, oil, and vanilla extract. Melt the jaggery in the microwave in 30-second intervals until completely melted and smooth. Whisk the mixture until well combined and smooth.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix. Add milk, a tablespoon at a time, if the batter is too thick.
Add Fruits and Nuts
- Gently fold in the soaked dried fruits and half of the chopped nuts. Reserve the remaining nuts for topping.
Bake the Cake
- Grease an air fryer-safe baking dish (approximately 8-inch square or round). Pour the batter into the prepared dish and sprinkle the remaining nuts evenly on top.
- Pre-heat your air fryer to 160°C (320°F). Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer.
Cool and Serve
- Carefully remove the cake from the air fryer and allow it to cool completely in the baking dish before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Eggless Fruit Cake
- For a richer flavor, use dark jaggery.
- If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake this cake in a conventional oven at 160°C (320°F) for about 30-35 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of dried fruits and nuts according to your preference. Chopped candied ginger adds a nice zing!
- Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
