Eggless Gulab Jamun Cake is a scrumptious cake made with gulab jamun ready mix available in markets. It has the delicious flavor of gulab jamun and its guilt free treat as there is no deep frying and drenching in sugar syrup involved!!
I find making gulab jamuns very time taking and tedious, so when I saw this recipe a few days ago, I decided to use the packets of instant gulab jamun mix I had in my pantry. The cake came out very soft and delicious ! Ready with easily available ingredients, this cake doesn’t need any special equipment or mixers!!
