Ingredients
1. 2 cups almond milk 2. 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted 3. 1 tablespoon white vinegar 4. 2 cups all
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8 inch round cake pan.
In a large bowl, combine almond milk, melted coconut oil, and white vinegar. Mix well.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Add in vanilla extract.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack.
Once cooled, cut the cake into 4 equal layers.
To assemble the Lamington Tower, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread half of the melted chocolate over the top and sides of the layer. Sprinkle shredded coconut evenly over the chocolate to cover it completely.
Repeat with the remaining layers, ensuring each layer is covered in chocolate and coconut before adding the next one. Finish with the top layer.
Refrigerate the Lamington Tower for at least 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
When ready to serve, use a sharp knife to cut the cake into wedges and enjoy this delightful vegan Australian dessert!
