Ingredients
Make this recipe gluten free by using a gluten free self-raising flour.
Serves 6
- 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.
