ZERO FAT VANILLA SPONGE CAKE (EGGLESS ,BUTTER OR OIL LESS)

This is My first post of this year. Let it be a sweet beginning with a super easy recipe.

What comes into your mind when you think about a cake recipe? Flour sugar and butter..Right? Can you imagine a cake without using a drop of butter or oil??? Yes it is!! This is such a magic cake without even a trace of butter or oil.

I saw this recipe while in search for an eggless cake. I never ever imagined a cake  can be made without using a drop of fat. So I was quite skeptical about the outcome. I kept my eye whole through the process of baking and to my surprise this cake rose up very well and turned very soft . Whenever I feel like to have a cake I make this. This is perfect with a cup of tea or coffee.
