ABOUT Pineapple Cake with Mango and Almond glaze RECIPE

Made it for a friend of mine on her birthday. She doesn't eat eggs so this is an eggless recipe.

Ingredients Serving: 6

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
4 tbsp curd + 1 tbsp water
1 tbsp vinegar
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp pineapple essence
1/4 cup pineapple juice
4 tbsp mango jam
Grated almond powder for dusting
1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

Sift together flour and baking powder. Cream together butter/oil with sugar using an electric blender.
Whisk the curd with a tbsp of water till you get a smooth mixture. Add in vinegar followed by baking soda. This mixture will start bubbling. So as fast as possible combine the flour with sugar and butter mixture.
Add in 1/2 a cup of water is the mixture is too thick. Now add in the bubbling curd and with a spatula cut and fold in the batter. Try incorporate as much air as possible.
Don't over mix, add in the pineapple essence and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degree centigrade for 35 to 40 minutes. Do the toothpick test to check.
