VEGAN LEMON CAKE image

This recipe is from the Ethical Baker and is a family favorite as our family mainly consists of vegans and vegetarians. By this cake being vegan is a bit more gentle on the waistline. Try to use unwaxed lemons when possible as they are a lot nicer and cleaner to use!

Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

275 g self-rising flour
200 g caster sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 lemon zest and juice
100 ml vegetable oil
170 ml cold water
150 g confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Put flour, baking powder, sugar, and zest into a bowl and mix well before adding the oil, juice and the water.
  • Mix thoroughly to make sure all is combined well.
  • Pour into a lined cake tin and bake for 30 minutes until fully cooked at around 200 Celcius.
  • When the cake is cool it's definitely worth making a glaze for the top, this is done by sieving the icing sugar and stirring in lemon juice until the consistency is wet enough to pour over the cake.
