Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 10

150g dairy-free spread, plus extra for the tins
300ml dairy-free milk, we used oat milk
1 tbsp cider vinegar
1 vanilla pod, seeds scraped
300g self-raising flour
200g golden caster sugar
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
100g dairy-free spread
200g icing sugar, plus extra for dusting
4 tbsp jam, we used strawberry

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line the bases of 2 x 20cm sandwich tins with baking parchment and grease with a little of the dairy-free spread.
  • Put the dairy-free milk into a jug and add the vinegar, leave for a few minutes until it looks a little lumpy. Put half of the vanilla seeds and all the other cake ingredients into a large bowl then pour over the milk mixture. Using electric beaters or a wooden spoon, beat everything together until smooth.
  • Divide the mix between your two tins then bake in the centre of the oven for 30-35 mins or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cakes comes out cleanly. Leave them in their tins until cool enough to handle then carefully turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
  • While the cakes are cooling, make the filling. To make the vegan buttercream, whisk or beat together the dairy-free spread, icing sugar and remaining vanilla seeds until pale and fluffy. Dairy-free spreads do vary so if the spread you are using is quite soft try to avoid using electric beaters. Stir the ingredients together instead to avoid overworking it. However, if the mixture is too firm, use electric beaters to help lighten it and add 1-2 tbsp of dairy-free milk when whisking.
  • Spread the jam onto one of the cooled sponges, top with the buttercream then place the other sponge on top. Dust the assembled cake with a little icing sugar or caster sugar before slicing.

Tips for Baking a Perfect Vegan or Vegetarian Cake:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas add natural sweetness and moisture to your cake. If your bananas aren't ripe enough, you can ripen them quickly by microwaving them for 30 seconds at a time until they're soft.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can lead to a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a good quality baking powder: Baking powder is what helps your cake rise. Make sure to use a fresh, aluminum-free baking powder for the best results.
  • Bake the cake at the right temperature: The temperature of your oven is critical for a successful cake. Make sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking.
  • Don't open the oven door during baking: Opening the oven door during baking can cause the cake to fall. Try to resist the temptation to peek!

Conclusion:

With a little planning and effort, it's easy to bake a delicious vegan or vegetarian cake that everyone will enjoy. These recipes provide a great starting point, but feel free to experiment with different flavors and ingredients to create your own unique creations. Happy baking!
