Did I bake a chocolate banana cake straight after a gym session? Maybe…
The texture of this cake worked out beautifully, I think replacing flour with ground almonds and not using ground oats has improved the sponge (and added to the cost my baking, sorry dad)
Ingredients:
- 150ml soya milk (or preferred milk)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 30g flaxseeds (or chia seeds)
- 1 overripe banana
- 25g coconut sugar (or sweetener of choice)
- 75g ground almonds
- 25g cacao powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Your fav chocolate bar (mine is @montezumas 100% 😉)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 170C
- Add the apple cider vinegar and flaxseeds into the milk and set aside
- Mash up the banana with a fork
- Cream the sugar into the banana
- Add the ground almonds, cacao powder and baking powder to the bowl
- Stir in the soya flaxseed mixture
- Chuck in some chunks of chocolate
- Pour into a cake tin
- Bake for about 25-35 mins
- Pour over some melted chocolate and top with strawberries :p
