November 21, 2020 at 10:56 pmHi Manjula, while making frosting for pineapple cake Can we add pineapple essence so that it gives more pineapple flavor? If yes in how much quantity should it be used?

February 4, 2013 at 6:13 pmThank you so much for this delicious recipe. I tried it and the cake turned out delicious!
I just had one comment – the 20 oz can of crushed pineapple actually gives 1 cup juice and 1 cup drained pineapple. However the recipe uses only 1/2 cup of juice and 1/2 cup drained pineapple. Did I do something different? Your response would be appreciated, thanks!

June 12, 2012 at 3:24 amdear aunty
the cake looks really lovely .
i am looking forward to preparing it today .
all the measurements are in cups and it is slightly confusing.
for maida 1 cup =128 gms
for butter 1 cup =113 gms
for juice 1 cup =125 ml.
for condensed milk half can is 200ml.
are my calculations correct?
it would be better if the measurements were in weights.
thank you

January 8, 2012 at 10:48 pmI was so looking forward to eating this cake. It turned out bitter 🙁 The only change I made was to use a butter substitute.. Could you please tell me what might have gone wrong? Also i baked it in a 3×8 inch loaf tin and it took more than twice the mentioned amount of time to bake.
Neha
February 18, 2012 at 7:03 pmHi Shilpa
I tried this recipe and it turned out greatt..
Make sure you aren’t using too much of pineapple as excess pineapple can give bitter taste.
try it again with same recipe, I am sure it will taste yum..:

August 23, 2011 at 9:25 pmHello Auntie
Your website here says 1-1/4 cups of maida but your video says 1 + 1-1/4 cups maid a. I made last cake looking at your video and this one I am following your website. I think my proportions are wrong now. My cake is still in oven and I guess it won’t come out well.
Please correct the error on your website so that others dont get confused like me.
Manjula Jain

pinch of salt
5 ounces sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
zest of 1 orange
half cup orange juice
half cup thick cream

May 5, 2011 at 10:38 amYou should be able to get baking powder in regular grocery stores. Most of them usually carry KRAFT’S Calumet Baking powder. Has always worked for me (make sure to check the expiration date).

thank you so much for this delicious recipe. I have made it several times and it turns out absolutely perfect. My family loves this cake and its wonderful to have with tea or even after dinner as dessert.
I usually cut my cake into squares and serve it with one spoonful of coolwhip cream topped with the crushed pineapple and a sprinkle of crushed pistachios.

November 8, 2010 at 7:25 pmMy boyfriend and I love this cake! Instead of sweetened condensed milk I used a commercial soy creamer and added sugar until it approximated the sweetness of the condensed milk. The texture is wonderful and the cardamom level is so nice – there, but not screaming at you! haha For the top I used solid, cold coconut cream from one can of coconut milk with some powdered sugar and 1/2 vanilla bean (scraped) and whipped it just like cream in my stand mixer. I’ll be making this a lot. Thanks for the recipe!!

I also noticed in your mail to Manjula that you stated
“I put it in oven with 375 deg as u said,within 5 min cake’s top layer becames black”
If you notice – Manjula’s recipe says 325.
That still should NOT have caused your cake to burn so quickly within the first five minutes but …… double check your temperature as always.
Hope this helps!
Liane Albert
August 17, 2010 at 6:14 amSarita,
Just to be curious? Do you live in the States? People have ovens from all over the world and they can be different so I want to make sure what I’m talking about is correct. It sounds like you might have not preheated the over properly, had it on the wrong temperature or you may have somehow had it on broiler element on perhaps. The reason I say this is because I have a Viking double convection oven and when I turn my oven on to “bake” and set the temperature, while the oven is preheating, it preheats by also using the broiler to help speed up the preheating process. Once it reaches the desired set temperature, the broiler element shuts off automatically.
What happened to you – happened to me once. We’d just built and moved into our home and I wasn’t familiar enough with my oven and only after putting something in the oven to bake and not preheating the oven to the full temperature and having the top become completely black – I read my oven instructions and discovered why.
I would definitely try making the cake again but make sure that your oven is set properly and that the top heating elements are working properly (since that is where your cake burned – the top) before putting your cake in – that way you won’t waste an entire cake and wind up having it burn again.
sarita
August 16, 2010 at 4:12 amHi Manjula aunty,I have just seen ur all recps,I tried eggless pinapple cake,But I got problem,I put it in oven with 375 deg as u said,within 5 min cake’s top layer becames black ,it was smelling burning ,so i lower temp to 180 degs,and kept it for 20 min,I saw cake had risen a lot ,and taken it out an checked with knife,so it was not cooked at bootom side,so why cake might hv burnt?
Jaya
August 17, 2010 at 3:53 pmSarita, did you bake the cake too close to the top of the oven? Always bake using the rack in the MIDDLE of the oven so there is equal distance to the top and bottom of the inside of the oven.
Sonal
August 26, 2010 at 3:28 pmSarita,
In US the unit is Fahrenheit but in India all appliances have temperature in Celsius which might have made your cake burn. A friend of mine made the same mistake as she was used to 180C which is about 350 F. She did not convert and her cake did not cook properly.

August 9, 2010 at 11:07 amHello Aunty,
i have a question…my oven has different symbols like top n bottom heat, bottom heat only , top heat only….which one should be set for baking a cake…
pls reply soon as i am new to baking…
thanks…n regards
Sonal
August 26, 2010 at 3:31 pmChavi,
You seem to have an OTG. It bakes excellent cake. The top heat option is for broiling, which is generally used for meats and for browning purpose. The bottom heat is used for baking. Both heat are required while making Naan or Baati. You may also search on Google as I am not an expert but have an OTG in India. Right now I am in US so have a bigger oven. Hope this helps you.
chavi
November 6, 2010 at 2:44 pmHi Sonal.
Thanks a lot for your reply..i really dont know if its an OTG because it looks like an oven to me. Its a big oven below my cooking range…but your reply is very helpful….regards

July 25, 2010 at 10:05 amHi,
I have a no bake eggless cheesecake recipe that is very easy – this may work better for people here in the US or other areas as I am not sure if you’d be able to get all the ingredients / pans there. If you don’t want
2 cups grambcracker crumbs – you can buy them already crushed or crush them yourself. If you crush them yourself – make sure they are very fine.
6 Tbsp. Margarine, melted
1 cup Sugar, divided
4 pkg / blocks (8 oz. each) Cream Cheese, softened
1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP LITE Whipped Topping, thawed
TO MAKE
MIX graham crumbs, margarine and 1/4 cup sugar; press onto bottom of 13×9-inch pan. Refrigerate while preparing filling.
TO PREPARE THE CHEESECAKE FILLING
BEAT cream cheese and remaining 3/4 cup sugar in large bowl with mixer until well blended.
Stir / Fold in thawed tub of whipped topping and then gently spoon over crust.
REFRIGERATE 4 hours or until firm.
If you wish to make this a strawberry or cherry cheesecake – use one can of strawberry or cherry pie filling and top the prepared cheesecake after it’s set in the refrigerator for 4 hours or until firm and set.
Store leftovers in refrigerator.
If you wish to make a smaller version – cut ingredients in half and use a 9 inch pie plate – follow same direction just use half the amount of ingredients and prepare in a 9 inch pie plate.

This looks good I will try this soon and let you know.
Thank you,
Liane Albert
July 26, 2010 at 10:53 amThanks Manjula,
I know that you’ll enjoy it. It’s very simple. I wrote that you have to used “lite” cool whip but you can actually use any kind that you would like.
Also, if you like to have a little bit thicker graham cracker crust on the bottom you can always increase the amount of graham crackers by 3/4 cup and add another tablespoon or two of melted butter. Sometimes I also will add another half can of pie filling as well if I want more of that. It’s versatile and as cooks know – you can always play around with it. Enjoy!

July 24, 2010 at 9:02 pmAunti, I want to thank you for this amazing recipe. My husband absolutely adores this cake. I had tried some other eggless cakes, but none had the moist consistency my husband loves. I also tried making it as an apple cake, which we also enjoyed very much. I used granny smith apples, and they aren’t very juicy, so I used apple juice from a bottle for the liquid. I processed the apples in the food processor until they were about the same size pieces as crushed pineapple. I had made those things that look like pretzels which you dip in sugar syrup, so I had syrup to spare. I used that on top of the cake by just painting it on lightly after warming it in the microwave and then sprinkled the top with a little cinnamon. Very tasty! But my husband says to be sure and tell you he likes your pineapple best. 🙂

July 24, 2010 at 1:05 amHi aunty,

June 17, 2010 at 5:56 pmHi Aunti Ji,
I am so pleased to have found your website. I have made quite a few recipes from your site and have been very pleased with the results each time. As a vegetarian it’s difficult to find good eggless cake recipes and I don’t feel egg replacers are a good substitute, but now I have found the perfect cake. Your eggless pineapple cake is the only cake that I have come across that is spongy and moist. I recently made them for my children’s 2nd and 4th birthdays. Once they were decorated they looked amazing our guests could not believe they were homemade. I was wondering can the pineapples be replaced with something else to give a different flavour?

June 15, 2010 at 3:43 amHello Auntie,
I am sorry that, i didn’t see you have already posted a cake recipe..
1) In India, I know only “amul butter” & that is “salty” so, if I don’t use salt in cake then ?
2) Have you used fresh pineapple? then how you used? I read your 1 reply that you have suggested to making “stew”. How to make “pineapple stew”?
3) Please post some more recipe of “Egg-less” cake.
Reply me as soon as possible,
Thank You.

You can use Amul Butter and omit the salt in the recipe. I have been preparing cakes with amul butter and it gives a unique flavor to the cakes which you’ll definitely love.
You can use fresh pineapple and crush it in a processor or chop it fine.

April 23, 2010 at 3:29 pmHi Manjula Aunty,
I tried making this cake today and it came out perfect. It was very moist and spongy. My family loved it and especially my 2-1/2 year old son who usually does not eat anything sweet, loved it.
I wanted to ask you if I can I make Orange Cake using the same recipe, just replacing pineapple for orange.
Do reply. Thanks a ton for all your good work.
Nannu

April 23, 2010 at 6:14 pmHi Nannu,
I have not tried with orange I have tried with apples so try it and let me also know how the cake came out I really don’t see any problem.

April 18, 2010 at 6:37 pmhi , aunti ji. what is the difference between baking soda and baking powder ?
Jaya
April 18, 2010 at 8:48 pmRozy, baking soda and baking powder are similar in that they are both leavening agents, but which one is best for a particular dish is a longer answer. They are not automaticallly interchangeable. You’d be best to Google it for more complete information.
Flip in Pittsburgh
April 20, 2010 at 11:25 amBaking soda is sodium bi-carbonate. It reacts with acids to produce carbon dioxide bubbles which make dishes rise.
Baking powder is baking soda and an acid salt.
When making a dish that does not have an acid component of it’s own, you use baking powder instead.
Some recipes require both when extra leavening is required.

Can you please mail me how to prepare icing.
Thanks
Leena
Manjula Jain
March 28, 2010 at 11:04 amLeena,
I dont make icing if I need to I use whip cream for icing.
Jaya
March 28, 2010 at 2:43 pmLeena and Swati, Here is a basic recipe for butter frosting/icing (same thing):
1) melt 1/2 cup butter in a saucepan on low heat til golden (don’t let it burn),
2) remove butter from heat,
3) sift 4 cups of powdered sugar/confectioner’s sugar (same thing) into a large bowl,
4) mix the melted butter into the sugar with a spoon,
5) Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and blend,
6) mixing with a spoon or whisk, blend in about 1/4 cup of milk or light cream into the powdered sugar. Add gradually the milk or cream until the icing is of a spreading consistency (similar to a thick batter).
Spread icing evenly, but not too thick, over cooled cake and the icing will firm up after a few minutes. This recipe may make more icing than you need for this sized cake.
Note: you must use powdered sugar NOT granulated sugar.
Hope you like it. 🙂
Jaya
March 30, 2010 at 3:39 amIf anyone makes this icing recipe, let me know how you like it! Thanks.

I must tell you that your website is really awesome. You have inspired so many like me to learn new dishes which looked impossible before seeing your site. I have tried Papdi chat, pani puri, mathri, khasta kachori, samosa, besan ladoo, kulfi, pineapple cake, gajar ka halwa, gujia, nan khatai, namak paare, bread pakora, masala french fries, spicy potatoes and many others and each one of the dishes came out perfectly even in their first trial. Special thanks for eggless cake!
Thanks a lot! You rock! 🙂

Yesterday night i tried this cake and i placed the cake in middle rack of the oven but it is taken around 45 min even though it is sticking to the tooth pick.
I am not comfortable with butter ,ghee smell.
so can you please suggest me any replacement for butter like veg oil,dalda.

December 13, 2009 at 8:45 pmHi Manjulaji,
Can we use a round cake pan instead of sqaure (about 9″ in diameter)? Also, I was able to get only unsweetend crushed pineapple. Would that work for the recipe or do I need to add sugar ? Please let me know the answer to these queries ASAP as I am planning to prepare this cake or my husband’s birth-day on Wednesday :))
Thanks.
Flip in Pittsburgh
April 20, 2010 at 11:51 amA round pan would work, but generally you want to have the same thickness when poured.
8×8 = 64in^2
9 inch roiund pan = 63.62 in^2 so that should work well.
We doubled the recipe and used 9×13. (127in^2 is almost 2x64in^2)

November 28, 2009 at 6:15 amhello aunty,
the cakes looks amazing, but in india it’s not as easy to find canned pineapples. can you please suggest a method using real pineapples. and the proportions, also what to substiute for the pineapple juice?
and when you said no mixing, only folding, won’t that lead to lumps?
sss
December 13, 2009 at 3:27 pmI am surprised you said canned pineapple not easily available in India.I am eating canned pineapple past 20 yrs.U’ll easily find them in confectioner’s shop and it is also easily available at grocerry stores.

November 19, 2009 at 12:27 pmAny baking powder substitute. Why cant we use eno.
All baking powders in India contain aluminum, apart from being bad for health(would definitely keep away from kids) also adds a tinny flavor to the end product.
Any substitutes

September 26, 2009 at 3:37 pmHi Manjulaji,
Thanks for posting this recipe. I made this cake for my mom’s 69th birthday, she is a total vergetarian and she enjoyed it a lot. I did make some modifications to the recipe as per my mom’s likes and dislikes and what was available in my pantry. I used same amount of cake flour in place of the all purpose flour, I subsituted 1 cup of grated carrots for pineapple as my mom does not like pineapple and 1/2 cup water for the pineapple juice. Since I had to use water in place of the pineapple juice I added 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar. I also substituted 1/2 tsp of ground pumpkin spice in place of the cardamom powder as I did not have that in my pantry. I add 2 tablespoons of chopped walnuts and 1 tablespoon of golden raisins roughly chopped. I baked the cake in a 2 qt square corningware dish and so I had to increase the baking time to 30 minutes. All in all the cake turned out super moist and very delicious. Thanks to you for your hard work and sharing all tehse wonderful recipes with the rest of the world. My mom had given up on onions, garlic about a few years ago and now when she visits me, thanks to your website, I am able to make the same dishes for all of us and she can enjoy them too as they are all saatvik. Thanks a million.

May 18, 2009 at 4:30 pmYou can also Google “eggless cake” and get many replies. Aunty has already written here that she does not bake much.
As for sabji curry, can you be more specific as to what you want? It’s too vague of a description. Sabji curry can be so many different dishes.
Also, check through all of her vegetable recipes here on her site.

Jaya
May 15, 2009 at 7:07 pmIf you can’t get unsalted butter, then just use regular butter with salt. Not that big of a difference.
Nestle brand Milkmaid in India is the same as the sweetened condensed milk sold in the US, so yes they are interchangeable.

April 20, 2010 at 11:35 amYou can omit or reduce the salt in the recipe if you can’t find unsalted butter. That’s what i did and it came out fine.

I tried out the eggless pineapple cake today. I added all the ingredients you said. I baked it at 325 F for 25 minutes. At the end of 25 minutes, the cake was still sticky and not fluffy, so I baked it for another 5 min. I let it cool until the cake was warm to transfer it onto a plate, when I did this, the cake broke off into several pieces. I like to know where I could have gone wrong in these steps. Can you help me out?

I tried out this cake yesterday. I added everything that you said except the butter. I wanted to make it low fat, so I added apple sauce instead of butter. The cake tasted good. But the texture of the cake was not spongy ( no holes). The cake was a lil sticky. I put the right amount of baking soda and baking powder too. What do you think could have been the reason for that?
Thank you,
T.

May 2, 2009 at 9:56 amHello Manjula Ji,
Your recipe looks awsome! My mother tried it today, only she put the over on 300 Celsius instead of Farenheit, we use Celsius here in Europe and we fergot that you work with Farenheit. Could you please next time tell us the degree’s and/or length/diameter in Metric volume also, so we don’t accidently burn the cake 🙂
Thank you Manjula, you’re our hero!
btw you remind me of my grandmother, only she is egyptian… And her cooking skills are also 5 stars 😀

April 20, 2010 at 11:33 amMicrowave cooking times are going to vary depending on the power of your microwave. Best to experiment. This is going to make you watch the first time through.
I’d microwave on high until the batter starts releasing bubbles, then progressively lower the power level until it just under simmering. you really don’t want the batter to boil. Watch the batter and test it every few minutes for consistency/doneness. I’ve made custards in the microwave, but not cake. Not sure how it’ll work… let us know how it turns out.

I tried the cake day before yesterday and came out awesome !!! We are Jains too, and so do not eat eggs.Hence there is limitation on baking.But I had canned pineapples in refridgerator since few days. The moment I saw your receipe I started to bake immediately. And my husband just loved it.( he doesen’t like sweet so much but the sugar content of your cake was perfect according to him).He carries one piece of the cake everyday to office to have in the late afternoon. 🙂
Thank You so much Auntyji you made my day !!!
