    Tutti Frutti Butterscotch Loaf cake

    Tutti Frutti butterscotch loaf cake is a delicious cake that goes well during tea time. A slice of this cake with a strong Tea will make our evenings heavenly.

    Tutti Frutti is nothing but candied papaya. Adding Butterscotch chips to this cake is purely optional. You can also replace it with Choco chips otherwise you can omit it, and bake it as a pure Tutti Frutti Cake.

    This cake is another addition to my Eggless and Butterless baking. You may also adapt this cake for the tutti frutti cake recipe with egg. In spite of the addition of egg or not, it is a perfect spongy tutti frutti cake. Now let's get into some serious baking business.

    Tutti frutti

    Tutti frutti is a candied fruit made from raw papaya. Papaya is chopped into small cubes, sweetened, colored, and dried to get Tutti Frutti. It is a very popular ingredient for baking, ice creams, and many confectioneries.

    Instead of papaya these days we also watermelon rind. Also, there are natural coloring agents rather than the artificial ones

    Ingredients

    Tutti Frutti Butterscotch Loaf cake Ingredients

    Flour - As always use white flour or you can also try half and half wheat and white flour.

    Sugar - Always use powdered sugar. It easily combines with wet ingredients. You can use Jaggery or brown sugar. If using brown sugar it might slightly change the color.

    Baking Powder - It gives an airy texture to the tea cake.

    Oil - Use any flavorless cooking oil.

    Vanilla - Use good quality pure vanilla extract.

    Cardamom Powder - Adds a mild cardamom flavor to the cake.

    Salt - A pinch of salt always elevates the taste of any dessert.

    Yogurt - makes a brilliant replacement for eggless cakes.

    Tutti Frutti - This is nothing but candied papayas. A very popular ingredient in Indian food joints or bakeries.

    Butterscotch Chips - This is a nice addition. You may skip them too.

    FAQ's

    How do I store eggless tutti frutti cake ?

    Let the cake cool completely and then slice and store them in the fridge. Store in air tight containers.

    Why do we coat the tutti frutti with flour?

    Coating the dry fruits or tutti frutti prevents the tutti frutti from sinking to the bottom of the batter. The tutti frutti or any dry fruits or nuts added to the cake is usually coated with flour. This helps in spreading the added components spread evenly over the cake.

    Can I use egg in this tutti frutti cake recipe?

    Yes, definitely you may replace the yogurt with 2 eggs. Beat the eggs really well until they triple up in volume and then add. tutti frutti cake with egg also has a nice spongy and airy texture.

    Tips & Variations

    • Never overbeat or mix the cake batter. Always fold the batter to a beautiful texture.
    • You may use any crushed nuts or even chocolate chips on the cake.
    • You can also skip the butterscotch chips if you do not prefer.
    • Go ahead and use brown sugar or Jaggery powder instead of white sugar.
    • Always use room temperature ingredients while baking the cake.
    • Line the baking pan with parchment paper and preheat the oven as needed before you start baking.
    • You may also replace yogurt with vegan yogurt or any vegan milk (cashew milk, coconut milk, Almond milk) for the vegan tutti frutti cake.
    • The addition of cornflour greatly helps in the lighter and airy cake. so never skip that.
    • I am using a loaf pan for baking the cake. You may also use a round or square pan. If that is the case the baking time may vary.
    • After baking the cake insert a toothpick and check if it comes out clean. If not bake for another 5 or 10 mins as needed.
    • Allow the cake to cool completely and then slice. I usually let it rest for 8 -12 hours and then slice.
    • You may use a serrate bread knife for slicing. This helps in giving you the perfect slices.

    Serving Suggestions

    It is a perfect tea time snack. Goes well with a cup of chai (tea) and biscuits. Also, I call it a perfect snack box cake.

    Storage Options

    The cake is eggless and butterless. So it is best to consume within two days. Or you may store them in the fridge for 4 days.
