GLUTEN-FREE RED VELVET CAKE



Gluten-Free Red Velvet Cake image

Made for a friend with celiac disease. I managed to get this cake to be light and fluffy, not the dense brick that most GF cakes become. This recipe is adapted from a red velvet cake recipe, but there were so many changes that it is pretty much my own creation now. Frost with your favorite buttercream or cream cheese frosting.

Time 2h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups gluten-free all purpose baking flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
½ teaspoon cornstarch
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
¾ cup butter, softened
1 cup avocado - peeled, pitted, and pureed
1 ½ cups applesauce
3 cups white sugar
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 drop red food coloring, as desired

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch springform pan, using gluten-free flour. In a bowl, sift together the gluten-free baking flour, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and baking powder. If mixture seems clumpy, sift again.
  • Place the butter, avocado, applesauce, sugar, vinegar, buttermilk, and vanilla extract into the work bowl of a food processor, and pulse several times; process until well blended. Mix in the egg yolks, and process again. Scrape the mixture into a large bowl.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar using an electric mixer until the whites form stiff peaks. Gently fold the egg whites into the avocado mixture, then fold in the flour mixture, being careful to retain as much fluffiness in the batter as you can. Gently mix in red food coloring. Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about 1 1/2 hours. Allow to cool. Since the cake is gluten-free, it may sink a little while cooling. When cool, remove from springform pan for decorating.

HOMEMADE RED VELVET CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Homemade Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting image

I came up with this recipe after going through tons of recipes and reviews. I like nice solid cakes, and this one is a little on the dense side but it's moist and has good amounts of chocolate and vanilla so that you can taste them but they're not overpowering. It is to-die-for good with frosting that is not too sweet or heavy.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
3 eggs
1 ½ cups vegetable oil
1 ½ cups buttermilk
½ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons red food coloring
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 ½ teaspoons white vinegar
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup white sugar
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter and flour two 9x2-inch cake pans.
  • Sift flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl and set aside.
  • Whisk eggs in a large mixing bowl until yolks are broken. Add oil, buttermilk, sour cream, red food coloring, vanilla extract, and vinegar; mix to combine. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, mixing by hand as little as possible so as not to overbeat. If mixing with an electric mixer, add flour mixture and mix until just incorporated. Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before removing cakes from pans to cool completely on a wire rack, 20 to 30 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, whip cream cheese in a bowl using an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Scrape into a different bowl.
  • Sift sugar, flour, and salt together in a medium saucepan. Turn heat to medium-high and whisk in milk and vanilla extract slowly until there are no lumps. Cook until it starts to bubble and becomes thick and pudding-like, 7 to 8 minutes. Pour into a mixing bowl and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  • Whisk chilled mixture using an electric mixer with a whisk attachment for 5 minutes. Add whipped cream cheese slowly, whisking until you have a smooth frosting, about 5 minutes more. Use to frost cooled cake.

TENDER RED VELVET CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Tender Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting image

My DH grew up on this cake! Of course, his mom had a recipe from a hotel in New York that presumably someone paid $1k for back in the fifties! Now, I believe that's an urban legend, much like the similar urban legend surrounding the famous super model's cookies of the 80's -- and I can't even remember her name! Yet her cookies were sold in airports and in cookie boutiques across the nation for years (they may still be out there!). The urban legend is all about someone paying an exorbitant price for a recipe so the disgruntled payer shares the recipe with the world at large so that it eats into so-and-so's profits (i.e., by folks making the special recipe themselves and not buying it). I'm not buying the urban legend! So there! This recipe is not about cookies; it's about classic red velvet cake. This recipe is based on the one from the magazine Cook's Country, December/January 2007. I hope you enjoy this! BTW, my DH would really love a copy of the one his mother made -- please let me know if you've posted it or have it! :) NOTE: This recipe must be prepared with natural cocoa powder. Dutch-processed cocoa will not yield the proper color or rise.Once this cake is made, you may cover and refrigerate it until ready to serve, up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use a digital kitchen scale for precise measurements. This is especially important for gluten-free baking, as the proportions of ingredients are crucial.
  • Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the batter to come together smoothly and evenly.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough and dense.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • If you are using a store-bought cream cheese frosting, be sure to whip it until it is light and fluffy before frosting the cake. This will make the frosting easier to spread and will give it a more professional look.

This gluten-free red velvet cake is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and tender crumb, rich chocolate flavor, and creamy cream cheese frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone.
