Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
2 cups (180g) instant oats (GF if needed) ground into flour
3/4 cup (120 g) rice flour
1 1/2 cups (130 g) shredded unsweetened coconut ground into flour
1 cup (150g) coconut sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients:
2/3 cup (160g) apple sauce or 160 g peeled courgette
1 1/3 cup (320ml) coconut milk canned
4 tbsp (80g) maple syrup or agave syrup
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Frosting:
340g (1 medium or 2 small) sweet potato
2/3 cup (160g) coconut butter (NOT coconut oil or cocoa butter)
1/3 cup (105g) maple syrup or agave syrup
1/2 cup (120ml) coconut milk canned
.
Instructions
1.Peel the sweet potato and chop into 1-inch cubes. Boil in water until fork tender. For this recipe, you will need 340 grams of cooked sweet potato (about 1 medium sweet potato or two small ones).
2.Meanwhile, process the oats and shredded unsweetened coconut in an electric spice/coffee grinder or blender. Then add all dry ingredients into a bowl.
3.Preheat oven to 356F/180C). Grease two 8-inch (20cm) or 7-inch (18cm) cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
4.Process the wet ingredients in a blender and pour the mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Whisk until combined.
5.Divide the batter between the two cake pans and bake for about 30-35min or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out almost clean. It can still be a little bit crumbly but shouldn’t be wet! If you use just one cake pan the baking time will be much longer (about 50-55min) but I definitely recommend 2 cake pans.
6.While the cake is in the oven, you can prepare the frosting. Simply process all frosting ingredients in your blender until completely smooth and creamy.
7.Once the cake has cooled completely, frost it and decorate with coconut flakes. Chill in the fridge for about 3h before serving. Enjoy!
