Ingredients

Cake

• 1 cup of almond milk
• 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
• 1 1/2 of self-raising flour
• 1 1/2 cup of golden caster sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda
• 1 teaspoon of ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg

Cream Cheese Topping

• 1 1/4 cup of dairy-free butter
• 2 tablespoons of dairy-free cream cheese
• 1 1/2 cup of icing sugar

Preparation

1. Preheat your oven to 360°F and line one 9 inch cake tin with grease-proof paper.
2. In a bowl, combine the almond milk with the apple cider vinegar and whisk until fully combined. Set aside for 10 minutes to curdle. This creates a vegan 'buttermilk'.

4. Mix well to combine.
5. Add the melted coconut oil into the 'buttermilk' and whisk to combine.
