cake x2

 

So this is the result of what I baked last night. I started with a nice and easy berry cake until I realised that my flatmates twin sister would come the next day and she is a vegan and I had already added the eggs so I decided to bake a second one, had bananas over anyway which I wanted to turn into a bananacake/bread anyway the next days. And I always got so frustrated with my old flatmates who baked something and then always had the excuse I could not eat because it had milk products. oh how hard is it to buy margarine instead of butter? most of the time you don't taste the difference anyway, so that was another reason why I decided to bake a second one. to not be like them!

VEGAN Banana-Almond paste-Cake

ingredienses:

100ml vegetable oil

100g sugar

2 bananas or more

100 g almond paste

2 bags of bakingpowder ot 4 teaspoons

300g flour

1 teaspoon cinamon, vanillasugar, cardamon (whatever you feel like)

a bit of salt

mix the sugar (I used brown but white would be fine too), salt, cinnamon, vanillasugar and oil until the sugar dissolved. add almond paste and bananas and mix it until it is almost a liquid. mix flour and bakingpowder and add it to the other mixture. add ricemilk/oil to get a more liquid dough. now you could even add peanuts or dates or stuff like that. then fill the dough in a tin and bake in the oven 175 degrees around 50 min, make sure the cake does not burn, use tinfoil on top after around 35 min

enjoy!

Nutcake

Ok so this recipe makes two cakes or one baking sheet and then you can cut it up in corners which is great as well, my baking sheet was not deep enough, so I ended up with two cakes, should have only made half of the amount but well, never enough cake!

Dough:
450g flour
1 ts baking powder
100g brown sugar
Bit of salt
3 eggs
175g margarine or butter

Combine all the ingredients and make a good dough. Then onto a baking sheet or in cake forms, keep it even everywhere.
Then cover the surface with a thin layer of any jam you prefer (best currant or apricots)

Filing:
200g butter or margarine
200g brown sugar
6 tablespoons water
600g of nuts (almonds, hazelnuts...)
Melt the butter or margarine and add the water, in a big bowl, mix the dry ingredients and add vanilla sugar or cinnamon or what ever you feel like. Then mix margarine into and mix well.

Cover the dough even with the nut mix.

Bake in mid of your oven 190degree for 30-40 min, let cool down and cut if you want

Decorate with chocolate (melt 1:4 margarine to chocolate)

AND ENJOY!
