Vegan Chocolate Vinegar Cake

by - 3/29/2018 10:30:00 AM


As promised, last week I mentioned that I stumbled upon a vinegar cake and I was inspired to try a healthier alternative. Though a vinegar cake in itself is dairy-free. I wanted to see what I could come up with on my own. My first trial run with this recipe was a success. I was so surprised at how yummy this recipe turned out. I even had the Mister try it and he loved it. It's so decadent, moist and very flavourful. It was so good that I made it for a second time on Sunday and I honestly ate most of the cake that day. It was that good! This time around I did not dust the cake with Cacao powder because I really didn't get the chance and it's actually delicious without or without it. I typically always keep homemade oats flour on hand and I ran out and had to make more. That's another super easy recipe that I can't wait to share with you guys. It's so easy to make homemade oats flour only two ingredients!


Anywho, have you tried any new recipes lately?

  3. Funny I just posted about a chocolate vinegar cake. Very moist and delicious. Never seen anyone else use vinegar before. Do you know what the vinegar does for the cake? So easy to make and doesn't last long.
