GF, Vegan Fruit Torte
This Torte is not very sweet, and is good as a breakfast pastry. If you want it for a dessert, you might want to add another ¼ cup of honey.
Ingredients:
½ cup honey
1 cup of unsweetened shredded coconut
½ cup coconut oil
2 flax egg (2 Tbs Ground Flaxseed, 1Tbs water, 1 Tbs Apple Cider Vinegar)
1 cup Gluten Free, Vegan Pamela’s flour
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. baking powder
Pinch salt
1 cup frozen blueberries
1 cup frozen banana
1 tsp. Zest of lemon
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
Sprinkle of Cinnamon, cardamom
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 °
In a small bowl, mix the water, apple cider vinegar and ground flax seed. Let stand for five minutes. Meanwhile, using a standing mixer, blend together the honey with the Coconut oil. Add the flax egg, vanilla and lemon zest.
In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to mixer.
Add fruit and lightly mix just to combine into batter, careful not to crush the berries. Spoon the batter into a well-greased torte pan (with removable bottom). Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon and cardamom.
Bake for 20-40 minutes. Depending on the size of the torte pan you use, the bake time will vary. A larger pan will produce a thinner cake and require less cooking time. Remove and cool on wire rack. Serve with Coconut Vanilla Ice Cream if desired.
