Ingredients

  • 1 cup (240 ml) almond milk
  • 1/2 cup (120 g) vegan butter, divided
  • 1 1/2 cups (180 g) all
  • purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (5 g) baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp (3 g) salt
  • 1 tbsp (15 g) maple syrup
  • 1 cup (160 g) mixed berries, fresh or frozen
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5 g) grated lemon zest
  • 1/2 tsp (3 g) ground cinnamon
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting
  • Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a saucepan, warm the almond milk and 1/4 cup (60g) vegan butter over medium heat until the butter has melted.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and 1/4 cup (60 g) vegan butter. Gradually add in the warmed almond milk mixture while stirring to form a smooth batter. Fold in maple syrup and half of the mixed berries.
  3. Pour the batter into a greased oven safe skillet or mold. Bake for 20 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. While the cake is baking, combine lemon juice, lemon zest, and cinnamon in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat until slightly thickened. Gently fold in remaining mixed berries.
  5. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes before slicing into portions. Serve each slice topped with the berry sauce and a dusting of powdered sugar, garnished with fresh mint leaves.
