Vegan bakes are soaring in popularity, and they're no longer thought of as unpleasant to it - in fact, they're FAR from it, so we're so pleased we can debunk that myth.

Directions

  1. Pre-heat oven 180ºC (160ºC Fan) and line a 20cm round cake tin.
  2. In a bowl add the oil, non-dairy milk, sugar alternative, lemon juice and lemon juice and whisk together.
  3. Sift in the flour and baking powder and whisk. Then fold in the ground almonds and pour the mixture into the tin and place in the oven for 40-45 mins.
  4. Whilst the cake is baking, make the lemon syrup. Place sugar alternative and lemon juice in a pan, you can cut up the empty lemons and add to give it more flavour if you wish, and simmer on a medium heat for 3 mins. Once thickened to a syrup consistency, remove from heat.
  5. Once the cake is ready, prick all over with a skewer. Slowly pour the lemon syrup all over the cake and allow to cool for 30 mins in tin and then carefully remove and place on a cooling rack.
  6. Once cake is completely cooled, make the drizzle. Mix lemon juice and icing sugar together until smooth and drizzle over the cake, then sprinkle over the lemon zest. Serve.

We've used a sugar alternative, but swap out for sugar if you prefer.
