Cake!

[portiafaceslife]

This morning I made a square spice cake - something I haven't made in 20 years or more. I don't know why, but I just felt like making it, & fortunately I had all the ingredients. It uses buttermilk, so I blended Greek yoghurt with soy milk, which seems to have worked, as the batter was the right consistency, & as you can see, the cake cooked

That looks delicious! Is it made with gluten free flours perchance?

Absolutely! Orgran gluten-free, wheat-free, egg-free, dairy-free,yeast-free, soy-free, nut-free, vegan all purpose flour. of course, by the time I've added eggs, yoghurt, soy milk & margarine, it's no longer vegan!

The cake could do with a little more sugar, when I make it again. I cut the sugar quantity in half - it had 1 1/2 cups to 1 3/4 cups flour, which seemed excessive. I'll take it back to 1 cup to balance the spices better. Still tasted pretty darn good spread with butter!
