Ingredients

Base

250ml plant milk (1 cup) @rudehealth
160g almond butter (1/2 cup) @pipandnut
260g agave syrup (1 cup) @bionaorganic
70g coconut oil (1/4 cup) @vitacocoeu
85g coconut sugar (1/2 cup) @lucybeecoconut
380g ground almonds (4 cups) @sainsburys
260g buckwheat flour (2 cups 2 tbsp) @daylesfordfarm

TOPPINGS

Strawberry chia jam
Cream cheese @koko

This cake recipe is my favorite yet! It's moist on the inside, with a sweet and tangy cream cheese, jam filling sandwiched in between. I used my 1 bowl layer cake recipe and layered it with a delicious cream cheese frosting and strawberry jam

METHOD

  • Preheat then oven to 180C and Melt the coconut oil, almond butter and heat the milk.
  • Mix together the first 4 ingredients
  • Stir in all remaining ingredients into the wet mixture to form a batter
  • Pour into a baking tray (I used 3 8 inch trays ) and baked for approx 18 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the centre of a cake comes out clean
  • For the icing - mix 150g of vegan cream cheese with 7 tbsp of powdered sugar, or 4 tbsp of agave. Powdered sugar works better to achieve a fluffy frosting consistency. I used @zusto but you can also use erythritol (found in @hollandandbarrett @totalsweet @amazon). This is a natural, unrefined powdered sugar!
  • For the strawberry chia jam - heat 200g of raspberries and 4-5 tbsp agave syrup (or maple / syrup) and use a fork to crush until softened. Add in 4 tbsp of chia seeds and leave for 5-10 minutes to thicken
  • Once the cake is baked and cooked, Spread jam and cream cheese frosting between the layers, and only cream cheese frostingon the top layer
