What makes this vegan chocolate cake so super fluffy?
Did you already wonder what makes this dough so super fluffy? I love fluffy cake batters that are not too soggy (except brownies, of course). And this vegan chocolate cake is prepared in addition to the baking powder on the one hand with sparkling water. Thanks to the carbon dioxide, this dough is nice and easy. On the other hand, I also take apple cider vinegar. Have you ever mixed soda with vinegar while cleaning? Then you will surely know that there is a real explosion. And that's no different here with the cake with baking powder and apple cider vinegar. However, what is important is to add the apple cider vinegar just before you put the cake into the mold.
I do not tolerate nuts - what about the vegan chocolate cake?
In this chocolate cake is a large part nuts, which will not leave the cake dry. You can of course replace the nuts with normal flour or use ground sunflower seeds. The chocolate flavor of the vegan chocolate cake will cover the sunflower seed taste. Maybe you also tolerate almonds, then just take almonds instead of nuts. In fact, almonds do not belong to nuts.
This vegan chocolate cake is:
- is the hit on every kid's birthday
- a quick cake
- tastes heavenly
- fool-proofed
