@sutapa Purkayasthait is because, you are over filling the cake mould, so the top gets cooked before the bottom is cooked.
Dont fill the cake tin above 3/4th.
Try using bigger pans

@sutapa PurkayasthaYou can use half wheat and half normal flour, and also in my opinion there is no sub for eggs in this cake, because it makes softer, Will share a eggless version soon
