This cake is perfect for all occasions, I even like to enjoy a slice at the weekend for a late breakfast treat. The cake itself is made using yogurt and the topping is healthy but also delicious, made using cashews and dates. I hope you love it as much as I do!

Note- You will need a high speed blender to make the topping, if you don’t have one you can also enjoy this cake without the topping or add another topping of your choice.


Ingredients

Dry ingredients

180g self raising flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

pinch salt

100g caster sugar

Wet ingredients

200g vegan yogurt (I used blueberry)

60ml vegan milk

60 mls light oil (I used rapeseed)

1 tsp vanilla

Juice and zest of half a lemon

Handful of blueberries

Topping

185g cashews

90g coconut cream (from the top of a tin of coconut milk)

60g dates

1 tsp beetroot powder (or a drop of red food colouring)

1/2 cherry Love Vegan bars


Method

  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and carefully mix until combined

  • Add the mixture to a lined tin and bake for 20 minutes

  • Whilst the cake is baking add the topping ingredients to a high speed blender and blend until smooth. This may take a good few minutes however once the cashews begin to blend it will turn very smooth and creamy so don’t worry if it takes some time to achieve the results.

  • Once the cake is cooked (insert a knife to check-if it comes out clean it’s ready) leave to cool completely

  • Once cooled add the cashew topping and smooth out

  • Blend or crumble a Love Vegan bar and decorate the edges

  • Keep the cake in the fridge to keep the topping fresh
