Scrumptious Lemon Cake

Delicious Vegan Recipes for Vibrant Living!

A Low-Sugar High Flavor Bit of Cake Heaven!

As far as desserts go, especially cakes, this is a fairly low sugar, low calorie treat. Its lemon-ness makes any day a bit more cheery, and it tastes yummy! This is a great birthday, or other special occasion cake. Plus, it’s very simple to make.

Ingredients:

1 ½ cups flour (go for the whole grain flours if possible—spelt, wheat, oat)

2 tsp baking powder

¼ tsp salt

½ cup dry sweetener (sucanat, organic cane sweetener, etc)

¾ cup soy milk

2 tsp lemon extract

zest of 1 lemon

¼ cup oil or melted margarine (Earth Balance Spread works well)

Egg replacer equivalent to 1 egg

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350. In one of your larger bowls, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the sweetener, extract, lemon zest, oil/Earth Balance, and egg replacer, and stir gently until everything is mixed (be careful not to over stir—just a gentle mixing.)

Pour into a lightly oiled and floured cake pan (bundt is nice, or an 8x 10”). Bake for 25-30 minutes, but be sure to check with a toothpick or knife to see if done.

For a healthier cake, go icing-free, but if you must, cream some margarine (no more than ¼ cup), a tablespoon or less of dry sweetener, a tsp of lemon juice, and some lemon zest. Of course, if you have a favorite icing, use it instead. This cake is scrumptious, enjoy it!
