1/2 cup oat milk
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

1. Step

Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a 20–22 cm cake pan with parchment paper, or grease it with coconut oil. In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Pour the batter into the cake pan and bake for 35–40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

4. Step

Let the cake cool completely before slicing and spreading it with the “frosting,” then sprinkle it with grated carrot, pecans, or walnuts.
