Eggless Applesauce Cake
It's delicious plain, and a mere dusting of powdered sugar is pretty enough.
Made this for a friends tea party. It tastes good with a cup of tea.
Adapted from Vegan Applesauce Spice Cake AKA Recession Cake http://delightfulrepast.blogspot.com.au/2011/08/recession-cake-not-quite-depression.html

1 cups unsweetened applesauce

Add the applesauce, oil, and vanilla. Mix well. No electric mixer needed.
Add the flour mixture and fold in. Add milk if too dry.

Rice Flour Cake
Recipe source
Serves 9
Brown rice flour can be used in place of all or part of the white rice flour. This is equally good with Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting or Vegan Cocoa Glaze (just make sure to use gluten-free vanilla extract). To make a double layer cake or 9- x 13-inch pan, simply double the recipe.
Ingredients
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, softened
1/2 cup evaporated cane sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons gluten-free vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups white rice flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Method
Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat an 8-inch square or round cake pan with olive or canola oil spray. Set aside. Cream butter with sugar in a large bowl until well blended. Add eggs and vanilla, beating with a wire whisk. Add flour and baking powder and continue to beat until well mixed. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until done when tested with a toothpick.

Gluten Free Scones (Vegan)
Although I use the recipes on www.elenaspantry.com as a guide, her recipes are not vegan. I use 1 tablespoon of ground flax mixed with 2-3 tablespoons of water to replace one egg. Everyone LOVES these!
2 cups bleached almond flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup dried cranberries or cherries
1/4 cup dried apricots chopped finely

1/4 cup sunflower seed or pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 egg or 1 tablespoon ground flax mixed with 3 Tablespoons of water.
2 tablespoons agave nectar or maple syrup
If the nuts and seeds are raw, toast them lightly. This is very easy in a dry skillet. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt. Add the dried fruits and nuts. Separately combine the agave and flax (or egg). Mix the wet ingredients into the dry. Form a large ball with the dough. It should stick together but not be too sticky. Add a bit more water if the dough doesn’t form a ball. Form a flat square around 10×10cm and 2 cm thick on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Cut into sixteen squares. Bake 10-12 minutes until sightly brown at the edges.

Fruity Summer Cake Recipe without Egg
Preparation Time:
cooking Time:
Total Time:
You need about half an hour more in between, while you are waiting for your cake to get cold.
Ingredients
For the batter:230 g Wheat Flour
160 g Sugar
250 ml Water
15 g Baking Powder
6 tbsp Sunflower Oil
For the filling:
300 ml Whipped Cream
200 g Quark or thick Yoghurt
300 g Peach, Tangerine or other Fruit
40 g Sugar
How to bake this Cake without Egg
Take a round cake pan and, with a kitchen towel or a brush, apply soft butter or ghee to its sides and bottom so that the cake won’t stick to the cake pan later.
Mix flour, sugar and baking powder in a bowl. Add the water and the oil and mix it to a nice batter which you then fill into your cake pan. This you put into the oven for about 20 minutes and let it bake there with 180 degree Celsius. This will be your cake base. When it is baked, take it out of the oven and let it get cold.
When it has cooled down, you can take it out of the cake pan. Use a spoon or a knife and carve out the middle of the cake. Leave a border of about a centimeter to the sides and to the bottom of the cake. Save the part of the cake that you took out for later.
Cut the peach and the tangerine or whatever fruit you chose into small pieces. Mix this fruit and 20g sugar into the quark. Whip the cream and add the remaining 20g sugar to it. Now mix the quark, fruit and the cream together.
Spread this mixture onto the cake where you caved out space for it. As a last step, crumble the rest of the cake, which you had put aside and sprinkle the crumbles over the cream. You can also gently press them to the cake so that they stay in place.
And there you are: a delicious summer cake with fruit and no egg at all. You can place it into the fridge for a while before serving so that it is nicely cool!

Palak Kadhi
Preparation Time: 15 min
Cooking Time: 45 min
Total Time: 60 min
Ingredients
500 g Plain Yoghurt
200 g Chickpea Flour
1 ½ l Water
500 g Spinach
2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Fenugreek seeds
1/8 tsp Asafetida
1 tsp Mustard seeds
2 tsp Ginger Powder
2 tsp Turmeric
1 Bay Leaf
7 Curry Leaves
Salt and Lemon juice according to taste
How to cook Palak Kadhi
Wash and cut the spinach into small pieces. Now take the chickpea flour and a bit of the water and mix it to a nice paste with your fingers, so that all the flour is fully mixed. There should not be any dry flour anymore.
Now blend the remaining water together with the yoghurt, then add the flour paste and blend it again with a hand-held blender.
Heat up the olive oil in a pot and when the oil is hot, add the fenugreek, asafetida, mustard, ginger powder, turmeric and in the end the bay leaf as well as the curry leaves. Shortly fry those spices and when they are hot, add the mixture of yoghurt, water and chickpea flour. Add salt according to your taste and keep on stirring constantly.
When the Kadhi is boiling, you can turn the heat down a bit and add the spinach. It will softly keep on boiling and cook the spinach along. You should repeatedly stir the Kadhi. The taste of Kadhi gets better the longer you keep it on the fire. So when your spinach is done, your Kadhi is practically done but if you want to boil it a bit longer, you can, it will only add to its taste.
In India, this dish is usually made out of yoghurt that is a bit sour. This note you can also get by adding lemon juice.
