Recipe for Eggless Yellow Cake That Is So Easy! (2024)

Create a delicious and simple yellow cake using basic pantry staple ingredients and NO eggs!

Eggless Yellow Cake Recipe

I bought some strawberries the other day at Safeway and the hubby really wanted some kind of yellow or white cake to eat them with. So far I’ve only made a eggless chocolate cake so I wasn’t quite sure how the yellow cake would work. The result was super yummy and I love not having to limit myself with it because it has no eggs!

Ingredients in Eggless Yellow Cake

• 1 1/2 c. flour
• 1 c. sugar
• 1 t. baking soda
• 1/2 t. salt
• 1/2 c. oil
• 1 c. milk
• 2 t. vanilla
• 1 T. vinegar

Great recipe! I made a 6 inch round layer cake and it turned out great. Baked up perfectly! Topped it with raspberry buttercream frosting. Yum!

Step By Step Instructions for Making Eggless Yellow Cake

In a medium sized bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients first. I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m pretty sure this recipe could easily be made gluten-free as well if you substitute the regular flour for gluten-free flour.

Add in the wet but don’t stir until you have added all the wet to the dry. If it’s easier just mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl and then add them together. Also, I used regular milk, but if you need it to be dairy-free, you could add soy milk, rice milk, almond milk, or something similar.

Pour in a greased 8×8 (or similar) pan. Bake at 350F for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Eat just like any other yellow cake. We had ours with whipped cream and strawberries!

WOW, I’ve been searching for an eggless yellow cake that would actually RISE! I’ve tried all the egg substitutes and everything has either tasted gross or I ended up with a fallen cake. The last disaster left me in tears at 11pm with a fallen yellow cake and a party early the next day. A google search led me to your cake, and fortunately I had all the ingredients in the house! The cake was a success, and it’s now requested at all family parties!

I did make one adjustment one time that made the cake light and melty. I was out of regular milk so I used vanilla almond milk (because it was midnight and that’s what there was). I eliminated one teaspoon of vanilla because of the vanilla flavoring in the milk. The cake got RAVE reviews!
