WHY YOU WILL LOVE THIS OLIVE OIL CAKE

Although not significantly lower in calories than regular cakes, olive oil cakes are healthier. And using olive oil in cakes adds a richness without an overpowering taste and it means that people with a non- or restricted-dairy diet can also enjoy them.
Being eggless, this Olive Oil Dry Fruits Cake is suitable for vegetarians or people with allergies.
Can double as your Christmas Fruits Cake
Loaded with bits and chunks of dry fruits
Perfect snack cake that can be enjoyed any time of the day
No Butter is used! Yay!!

So, in this Vanilla Cake with Dried Fruits, I used oil instead of butter (oil in cakes makes them stay fresh longer, makes the cakes spongier and less dense), Greek yogurt instead of eggs (some people have dietary restrictions on eggs)!

INGREDIENTS YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE VANILLA OLIVE OIL SNACK CAKE

Baking soda, Baking powder
Salt
Yogurt
Sugar
Olive oil: I used light olive oil in my cakes. You could use any flavorless oil like vegetable oil or canola oil. Melted butter can be used in this cake as well
