- 200 g sugar
- 2 tbsp apple sauce
- 300 ml soy milk
- 150 ml oil
- chocolate chunks optional
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 25-cm loaf pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, ground hazelnuts, and baking powder. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together soy milk, unsweetened applesauce and oil. Stir until well combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a dense cake.
- Add Chocolate Chunks: Optionally, fold in chocolate chunks or chips into the batter for extra richness and flavor.
- Pour into Pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
