Sponge cakes, while light and airy in texture, can often feel quite sinful because of all the butter and sugar that they have in them—not to mention the thick layers of buttercream that often top these delicious treats. This recipe, however, makes use of steaming to help the cake rise, as opposed to butter or shortening compounded by the heat of an oven—making for a cake that requires very little oil for you receive your desired fluffy cakes. Easy to make and even easier to eat up with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate, these cakes are lighter on the calories, making your dessert time guilt-free and kinder to your waistline. You can slather on a light, quick icing or simply top it with some peanut butter and fruity jelly—it’s also quite portable and perfect as a sweet treat in a lunchbox.

hi! you can use vegetable oil. basically any oil as long as the oil doesn’t have a strong taste. i’ve switched oils before and it doesn’t really affect the taste as long as the oil is tasteless like canola, vegetable, and corn oil. i hope this helps you.
