EASY LOW-FAT VANILLA WHITE CAKE-- LOW IN CALORIES BUT NOT TASTE!



Easy Low-Fat Vanilla White Cake-- Low in Calories but Not Taste! image

Don't miss out on birthday cake-- but miss out on the saturated fat and calories! I used pourable egg whites for this recipe, if you use real eggs for this 2 to 2.5 egg whites will do fine. Regular pourable egg substitute like store-brand or EggBeaters also works. I used Recipe #411869 for baking powder for added health quotient. The sunflower oil is Vitamin E rich and adds a nice clean taste to the batter. I'm sure lavender sugar would taste awesome in this and there is just enough sugar for sweetness but the cake isn't weighed down by it.
