Vegan Coffee Cake

Ingredients:

1 cup soy milk

1 tbsp distilled white vinegar

2 tbsp water + 2 tsp baking powder (mix this together, this serves as an egg replacer)

2 1/4 cups wheat flour (or your flour of choice)

1 1/4 cups brown sugar (you can also try palm sugar)

3 tsp cinnamon

1 1/2 tsp ground ginger (or freshly grated ginger)

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 cup vegetable oil

2 tsp baking powder (yes, more baking powder)

What to do:

Mix the flour, sugar, and 2 1/2 tsp cinnamon, ginger, salt, and oil. Transfer 1 1/4 cups of this into a small bowl and add the rest of the cinnamon to the small bowl. You may also want to add more sugar if you have a sweet tooth like me.

To the remaining flour mixture add the dry baking powder. Mix together the soy milk, vinegar, and water + baking powder mixture, and then add to the flour mixture. If, when everything is mixed together, it is soupy, add some of the flour mixture you put aside. This should have the consistency of a cake batter, not soup!

Spread the batter in a 9 x 13 baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining flour mixture, if your batter is too soupy the topping will sink in (you may want to add more sugar and spices such as cardamom to the topping mixture, you want enough topping to cover the entire cake)

Bake at 350 Fahrenheit or 150 C for 30- 35 minutes.

yay! I'm delighted that you made this cake! Sometimes I've had trouble with the topping seeping in (one trick I've found when the batter is too liquid is to bake the cake for 15-20 minutes without the topping and then add the topping and bake for another 20-25 minutes). It sounds like it turned out well for you though. :)

ah, clever trick.

i actually had no problems with the cake at all. i made a few substitutions-baking powder in place of the baking soda, because i didn't have any. so, without the baking soda, i also cut the vinegar from the recipe. the cake came out fine regardless.

Thanks so much for posting this recipe. I made it last night and it is a winner! The trick is to mix thoroughly after adding the liquid...then the topping won't sink to the bottom. Also, your suggestion of adding Cardamom to the topping is a good one! Thank-you!
