Serves: 12
Ingredients
1 cup DHOW Green Banana Flour
1 cup plant-based yogurt (I used cashew yogurt)
½ cup coconut sugar
½ cup + 2 TBSP almond milk
¼ cup cacao powder
¼ cup neutral-tasting oil (I used macadamia oil)
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch salt
FROSTING:
1 cup cacao powder
½ cup cacao butter
½ cup maple syrup
Method
In a bowl combine together the green banana flour, coconut sugar, cacao powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl combine together the yogurt, milk, oil and vanilla.
Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until a batter forms.
Pour batter into a lightly greased 20cm springform cake tin.
Bake in the oven at 180 C for 40 mins or until a toothpick comes out clean.
For the frosting: meltdown the cacao butter in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in maple syrup and cacao powder. It will create a thick frosting. Lather on the cake with a spatula and decorate with berries. Slice and enjoy.
