Ingredients
- 3 cups 1:1 gluten-free baking flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp nutmeg
- ½ tsp allspice
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2½ tsp ground ginger
- ½ tsp ground cloves
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1½ cups brown sugar
- ½ cup vegan butter softened
- ¾ cup molasses
- ¾ cup apple sauce
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F / 180 C. Grease a bundt pan and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and salt.
- In a stand mixer beat the brown sugar and butter.
- Whisk in the molasses until combined, then the apple sauce.
- Add the almond milk and half of the dry ingredients. Whisk until incorporated.
- Add remaining dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 40-45 minutes or until an inserted skewer comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes before flipping it out on a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Generously grease the bundt tin with spray oil to ensure the cake doesn’t stick.
- Cake can be served as it is or topped with a light sprinkle of powdered sugar.
- Store the cake in an airtight container in a cool dry place for up to 3 days.
- Scrape down the mixing bowl in between each addition of ingredients to ensure an evenly mixed batter.
- The batter may look slightly curdled when mixing the wet ingredients into the vegan butter mixture but it will come together when the dry ingredients are added.
- Serve with a sprinkle of powdered sugar if desired.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the fridge.
- If the cake begins to brown on top before being completely cooked, cover with a sheet of foil and continue baking.
