I love coconut and I love tres leches cake. So I combined both and this is the delicious results. Plus it's vegan! Top with dairy-free whipped cream if desired.

Time 5h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons dry egg replacer (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
¾ cup water, divided
¾ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon coconut extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 (11.5 fl oz) can sweetened condensed coconut milk (such as A Taste of Thai® Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk)
1 cup dairy-free heavy whipping cream (such as Silk®)
½ cup cream of coconut (such as Coco Lopez®)
½ tablespoon vanilla extract
½ tablespoon coconut extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 11x7-inch baking pan.
  • Mix egg replacer with 1/2 cup water in a bowl. Add sugar and beat with an electric mixer until well combined. Beat in remaining 1/4 cup water, vanilla extract, and coconut extract. Add flour, baking powder, and salt, beating until batter is smooth. Pour into the baking pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 28 to 33 minutes. Cool for 1 hour on a wire rack.
  • Combine sweetened condensed coconut milk, dairy-free heavy whipping cream, cream of coconut, vanilla, and coconut extract in a bowl for the tres leches sauce.
  • Poke holes into the top of the cooled cake with a skewer. Pour sauce over the cake using a large spoon, allowing it to soak into the holes. Cover and refrigerate until most of the sauce is absorbed, at least 4 hours.

This is the best vegan tres leches cake recipe I've ever tried. It's so moist and flavorful, and the tres leches sauce is the perfect finishing touch.

I made this cake for my vegan friend's birthday and she loved it! It was so good that even my non-vegan friends couldn't tell the difference.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted almond milk for the coconut milk in this recipe. It turned out great!

This cake is way too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out right. It was too dense and didn't have the right texture.

I was so excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The cake was dry and the tres leches sauce was too sweet.

This vegan tres leches cake is absolutely delicious! It's moist, flavorful, and has the perfect amount of sweetness. I'm not even vegan, but I would definitely choose this cake over a traditional tres leches cake any day.
