Recipe Below ππΌ.. These vegan and gluten free Chestnut Cakes are like little works of art πΈ
π° 100g chestnut flour
π° 4g baking soda
π° 50g brown sugar
π° 80ml of plant milk
π° 1 tablespoon liquid sweetener (rice syrup, etc)
π° 60g @thevegandairy butter, melted
Preheat your oven to 170C. Prepare your favourite mini cake pan by brushing with some butter and dusting the inside with flour (try using mini moulds / cake pop moulds to get chestnut-like shapes**). Set aside.
In a bowl, mix the flour, baking soda and brown sugar. Slowly pour in the milk, until it reaches the consistency of a thick cake batter. Mix in the liquid sweetener until incorporated. Fold in the melted butter.
Scoop the batter into your prepared cake pan and bake for 12-15 mins until cooked through. Cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan before turning them out on a cooling rack. Cool completely or serve warm. OPTIONAL: Dip bottom of cakes into liquid sweetener and then sesame seeds to get the effect used in this photo
**if using mini moulds to get chestnut-like shapes, mark cakes with a fork on one side about halfway through cooking
