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.

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 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.

Increasing the milk powder will alter the cake texture. I would recommend sticking to this recipe.
