Eggless Strawberry Tea Cake is baked with fresh strawberries and is very mild in sweetness as I was looking at making my Tea Cakes even more sugarless. All the previous Tea cakes which used about 3/4 cup Condensed milk or sugar was still little sweet for my liking and I thought I must reduce it further and experiment.
This Tea cake turns out excellent with just a wee but sweetness that makes it perfect to snack on. There is nobody to snack on this cake, other than Peddu who is a great fan of Strawberry. He had his share in the morning the moment it came out of the oven and liked it a lot. I am hoping he will complete the entire batch.
I have even replaced a major part of the butter with cooking oil, to see if the texture comes out good. The texture was perfect with that sponginess to spring back and the right amount of richness with the butter I added.
So make the best of the Strawberry Season and make this.
