December 18, 2019 by maria 16 Comments

Eggless Christmas Fruit Cake recipe with step by step photos in vegan style! I was getting a lot of request from my readers so made an Eggless Fruit Cake. I did make many kind of cakes for Christmas Cake and this was one of them. I have made Goan Baath Cake, mango sponge cake, Wine Chocolate Cake along with other sweets and savories..

There are lot of versions of making Christmas fruit cake. In-fact some countries have their own kind of fruit cake. Today I am sharing Christmas Fruit Cake which is egg-free, liquor free, dairy free and no time bound.  I have added all dry fruits available on earth to make it rich and flavorful. Also generally rum is used however I have used orange juice. Traditionally dry-fruits are soaked in rum for 4 to 5 months. The best part of this egg-less Christmas Fruit Cake is it can be made instantly without the  soaking business 😉

I am going out of town to attend a family function and wedding. So I would be away for few days however will come soon and share regular recipe updates. Enjoy your day will catch you guys soon!

Let’s make step by step Egg-less Christmas Fruit Cake :

1. Preheat oven at 180°C for ten minutes before baking. Grease 2 squared Or rectangular shaped pan with oil place a parchment paper at the bottom. Sift flour, salt, baking powder, cornflour and all the spices powder mentioned below. Keep them aside.

Notes
If the cake is browning you could cover the cake with foil.
If you like butter use it in replacement of oil.
Also you could your own choice of dry fruits.
If you love liquor use rum instead of juice.
I have tried rum cake with eggs and without eggs both taste great.
Have used spice powder you could use all spice powder Or spices you love for this cake.
Nuts are optional add them if you have or just skip it.
If you feel the cake batter is too dry add little water if required.

    This cake looks so moist and rich. I love fruit cake but it doesn’t love me unfortunately. It’s great that it is dairy and alcohol free.
