Eggless Gluten Free Chocolate Chiffon Cake

Eggless gluten free chocolate chiffon cake.
A cake made with sorghum flour or jowar atta. Soft, moist, light, airy and chocolaty cake. You don’t need to separate egg yolks and whisk. Its very easy to make.

I have used sorghum or jowar flour in it. And very happy with the taste.
Sorghum, an ancient cereal grain that’s a staple crop in India and throughout Africa, has long been considered a safe grain alternative for people with celiac disease and gluten insensitivity. New molecular evidence confirms that sorghum is completely gluten-free, and reports that the grain provides health benefits that make it a worthy addition to any diet.
Sorghum has high nutritional value, with high levels of unsaturated fats, protein, fiber, and minerals like phosphorus, potassium, calcium, and iron. It also has more antioxidants than blueberries and pomegranates.

Method

1. Preheat the oven at 180ยฐ.

2. Grease a baking pan and dust with sorghum flour. Or line with parchment paper.

3. Mix 1 tablespoon vinegar in 3/4 cup milk. Milk should be at room temperature.

4. Whisk 2 teaspoon coffee in 1/4 cup warm milk and keep aside.

5. In a bowl sieve sorghum flour, oats powder, cornflour, baking powder, soda and cocoa powder.

6. In a large bowl whisk powdered sugar, oil and vinegar mixed milk.

7. Add coffee mixed milk and vanilla essence. Whisk again.

8. Now add all the dry ingredients gradually and mix well. Make a lump free smooth batter.

9. Pour the batter into the greased and flour dusted baking pan. Tap the pan gently.

10. Bake in preheated oven at 180ยฐ for 30 – 40 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean.

Every oven take different time so check after 30 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the middle, if it comes out clean its done. If not bake for few minutes more.

11. Let the cake cool down.
Sprinkle powdered sugar over it. This step is optional. Cake will be delicious without it too.

12.Slice and serve. Or enjoy the soft delicious chocolate chiffon cake with ice cream.

Notes

1. You can frost the cake if you like.

2. You can use all purpose flour or whole wheat flour instead of sorghum flour.

      Thank you so much Arti. Yes you can make cupcake with this batter. And you can use lemon juice instead of vinegar. Or instead of milk and vinegar use 1 cup curd. We have to use buttermilk to make the cake soft.

      Thank you so much Namrata. Please don’t open the oven door during baking to avoid sinking in the middle. Too much baking powder, under mixing or over mixing also may be the cause of collapse in the middle. Hope it helps.
