Simple Vanilla Cake

An easy, crowd-pleasing cake made with versatile Alpro Soya Drink

70 mins

Ingredients

Make this recipe gluten free by using a gluten free self-raising flour.

  • 250g of self-raising flour
  • 70g of vanilla sugar
  • 190ml of Alpro Soya Drink
  • 75g of sunflower oil
  • 40ml of boiling water
  • 1 vanilla pod or 1 ts vanilla essence
  • 3 tbsp of flaked almonds
  • pinch of salt

Preparation

Step 1

A one-step cake that is a breeze to make, tra-la! Preheat your oven to 180°C and oil an 8" cake tin.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, stir together the self-raising flour, vanilla sugar, seeds of the vanilla pod (or essence) and a pinch of salt. Add the Alpro Soya Drink, sunflower oil and boiling water and whisk the whole lot until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the mixture into your tin, sprinkle over the flaked almonds and bake for 40-45 minutes until a lovely golden brown. Test by piercing with a wooden skewer – when it comes out clean, your cake is ready.

Step 4

Let the cake cool. (We know, hard not to dive in straightaway!). Fab with coffee at any time, or as a dessert with fresh fruit and a spoonful of Alpro creaminess.
