Instructions

Apple Chai Spiced Cake

    Instructions

    • Pre-heat oven to 350F.
    • Whisk together soy milk and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl and set aside for 15 min to curdle into a dairy-free buttermilk.
    • In a large bowl mix together dry ingredients.
    • In a separate bowl, mix together all wet ingredients except the shredded apple.
    • Slowly pour the wet batter into the dry bowl and mix until everything is combined. Try not to over mix.
    • Fold in the shredded apple and transfer the batter into a lightly greased 10.5” Bundt pan (the one that looks like a French curler donut).
    • Bake in the oven for 40-45 min. It’s done when you can stick a toothpick in the middle and it comes out clean.
    • Once baked allow to cool for 10-15 min before flipping over onto a cake stand or plate.
    • Drizzle maple glaze all over the top while its still slightly warm and top with chopped pecans.
    • Serve and enjoy!
