Chai Bundt Cake

Time: 60 minutes

Serves 8-10

Ingredients

3 cups plain/all-purpose flour (sub gluten-free oat flour to make gluten-free)

1 cup almond flour

1 cup coconut or brown sugar

¾ cup Laird Superfood Chai Instafuel

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp sea salt

3 cups water

¼ cup melted vegan butter or refined coconut oil

1 tbsp lemon juice or apple cider vinegar

2 tsp vanilla paste or extract

¼ cup chopped dates

For the vanilla glaze:

1 cup powdered/icing sugar

1 tsp vanilla paste or extract

2-3 tbsp almond or soy milk

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350F/180. Grease a bundt cake pan well with vegan butter or oil.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the regular flour, almond flour, coconut sugar, Chai Instafuel, baking powder and baking soda. Stir with a whisk until uniform.
Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the water, melted vegan butter, lemon juice and vanilla. Stir until uniform.
Gently fold in the chopped dates. Do not stir too much or the cake might get rubbery.
Pour batter into loaf pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, depending on the shape of your bundt pan, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and cool for 20 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a plate and cool completely.
While the cake is cooling, make the icing by whisking together the powdered/icing sugar, vanilla and almond/soy milk until you get a thick but runny icing.
Drizzle icing over cake.

Serve immediately or keep at room temperature in an air-tight container until needed.
