Description
A delicious vegan chocolate cake made with oat flour and protein powder.
Ingredients
Scale
- ¾ cup oat flour
- 1 cup vegan chocolate protein powder (I used Sun Warrior)
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup maple syrup
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ cup full fat plain greek yogurt
- ¼ cup avocado oil or melted coconut oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 3 Tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 8” round cake pan with cooking spray.
- Add oat flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt to a medium mixing bowl and stir to combine.
- Add maple syrup, almond milk, yogurt, oil, eggs and vanilla to a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir to fully combine, until smooth.
- Pour batter into prepared cake pan. Bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely before frosting.
- While cake is cooling, make the ganache frosting. Add chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 15-second increments until fully melted. This should take 45-60 seconds. Once melted add milk and stir to combine.
- Frost the top of the cake and serve!
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use melted coconut oil for the cake.
- This cake pairs perfectly with a scoop of vegan ice cream.
