Hot milk eggless cake
Hot milk gives an amazing texture to the cake so don't skip it. I have microwaved the cake instead you can also heat the milk on the stovetop and prepare the cake. You can skip cardamom powder and saffron according to your taste but use hot milk for eggless gulab jamun cake.
Can I use wheat flour for an Eggless gulab jamun cake?
Yes, but wheat flour will make the cake dense you might need 1/4 cup extra milk for this recipe. Refer to my Eggless dry fruit recipe with wheat flour, orange juice, nuts, honey.
What kind of flavors can I add for Eggless Indian fusion cake?
I like cardamom flavor and saffron in my gulab jamun so used both for the cake recipe. You can include flavors like Cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, etc for sugary syrup. You can also add rose essence for sugar syrup
Can I make whipped cream or buttercream icing?
Yes, you can frost the cake as desired. I recently tasted Jamun in an Indian restaurant with rabri inspired from that I made Jamun cake with rabdi.
Should I add some gulab jamun for flavor?
The cake tastes gulab jamun so I didn't prepare and add Jamun topping. You can add according to your choice https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3zYDDQHDMSt7nVByt7c_w7jd2Fx2SYZp 
Can I use butter instead of oil?
Yes, oil can be substituted with melted unsalted butter but as I told you in my Eggless white forest cake and Eggless chocolate cake oil makes the moist cake. If you are using melted butter avoid refrigerating. Keep the sugar syrup-soaked cake outside and refrigerate rabri. Add rabri to the cake slice and serve
Can I increase the milk powder?
Increasing the milk powder will alter the cake texture. I would recommend sticking to this recipe.
Can I prepare eggless gulab jamun cake with Jamun mix?
Preparing cake batter is so easy you don't need Jamun mix for the perfect tasty cake. Other Eggless cake recipes in TMF
Can I use brown sugar or jaggery for the cake?
I would recommend white sugar as it gives the best Jamun cake texture and taste.
Can I make Eggless Jamun cake in the regular pan?
Yes, can use a mini bundt pancake or any other pan of your choice. Baking time may vary accordingly. My friend prepared gulab jamun cake with gulab jamun mix in a Bundt cake pan so inspired by her Bundt cake pan idea I prepared gulab jamun cake in Bundt pan.
