Prep: 20 mins – Cook: 35 mins – Total: 55 mins

Equipment

  • Cake Pans
  • Electric Mixer
  • Spatula
  • Food Processor

Ingredients

  • 1 cup vegan butter , softened
  • 1¾ cups granulated sugar
  • 13.5 oz can whole fat coconut milk (canned)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Cashew Coconut Cream Filling

  • 1 cup raw cashews (soaked in water at least 2 hours up to overnight)
  • ¼ cup agave nectar
  • ½ cup coconut flakes
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (see note)

Vegan Vanilla Frosting

  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • ⅓ cup vegan butter or coconut oil , softened
  • 2-3 tablespoons plant-based milk
  • 1/2 cup coconut flakes , sweetened

Instructions

For the Vegan Coconut Cake

  • Preheat oven to 350F° degrees. Grease and flour two round 9-inch cake pans. Cut circles of parchment paper to fit in the bottom of the pans. Place rounds in bottom of pans and top with additional vegetable spray.
  • Using an electric mixer, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Add the sugar and cream together for up to 2 minutes, until light. Add the coconut milk, vinegar and coconut flavoring. Cream well until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and baking soda. Add flour to creamed mixture, beating until just mixed.
  • Divide batter equally among prepared pans. Level batter in each pan by holding pan 3 or 4 inches above counter, then dropping it flat onto counter. Do this several times to release air bubbles for a more level cake.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes. Invert cakes onto cooling racks. Cool Completely.

For the Cashew Coconut Cream Filling

  • For the filling between the cake layers, you can use frosting or this cashew cream coconut filling. To make the cashew filling, drain soaked cashews and add them to a blender or food processor. Add the agave nectar, coconut oil, and coconut flakes. 
  • Pulse in short bursts to break apart the cashews. Use a spatula to push down contents from the side of the bowl and pulse again in short bursts. Repeat this process until a cream begins to form. Then begin pulsing in longer periods to break down the cashew and coconut bits even more. Once this mixture is creamy to your liking, transfer to a bowl and refrigerate.

Vegan Vanilla Frosting

  • Add the vegan butter to a mixing bowl and use a mixer on medium speed to cream it. Add one cup of powdered sugar and mix that into the butter, until well combined. Repeat with the remaining powdered sugar. Once all the powdered sugar is added, it will be a crumbly mix. Add the plant-based milk one tablespoon at a time until you achieve the desired, spreadable consistency.

Assembling the Coconut Cake

  • Once the cakes have cooled, place the bottom cake on a plate. Use a serrated knife to level the cake (if there is a dome or it’s uneven on the top). Spread either the cashew coconut filling or a layer of icing over the top. Place the second cake on top of the frosting or cream filling. Add additional frosting on top and sides of cakes. Garnish the top and sides with coconut flakes.

Easter Vegan Lemon Cupcake Recipe – Vegan Easter Recipe – Vegan Lemon Cupcake Recipe

Prep: 20 mins – Cook: 25 mins – Total: 45 mins

Ingredients

For the Base:

  • 240 ml / 1 cup unsweetened dairy-free milk 
  • Juice and zest from 1/2 medium lemon (save other half for frosting) 
  • 150 g / 5 ¼ oz self-raising flour* 
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch 
  • 80 ml / 1/3 cup sunflower oil 
  • 150 g / 5 ¼ oz caster sugar 
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 

For the Icing:

  • 150 g / 5 ¼ oz dairy-free butter
  • 280 g / 9 ¾ oz confectioner’s sugar
  • Juice and zest of 1/2 lemon
  • Vegan-friendly jelly beans

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F and line a cupcake tray with eight liners.
  2. Mix the almond milk, lemon juice and zest together in a jug to “curdle” slightly for a few minutes. Meanwhile, mix the flour and corn starch together in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add the oil, sugar and vanilla to the almond milk. Then mix the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk until smooth.
  4. Divide the batter between the eight cupcake cases and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and spongey to the touch. Tip, when you’re dividing up your mix use a ¼ measuring cup to scoop the batter into the cases. This way, you know you’re getting the same amount for each cupcake plus it helps to avoid any drips!
  5. Leave to cool completely before decorating.
  6. Prepare the buttercream by whisking the dairy-free butter, lemon juice, zest and icing sugar together until a thick frosting is formed. Add more icing sugar, if needed.
  7. Transfer the buttercream to an icing bag with a star-shaped nozzle. Create buttercream swirls on top of the cupcakes.
  8. Now the fun part! Decorate with your pastel-coloured jelly beans. Enjoy!

Vegan Orange Chocolate Cake Recipe – Vegan Dessert Recipe

Prep: 25 mins – Cook: 45 mins – Total: 65 mins

Ingredients

  • 250g vegan spread at room temperature
  • 250ml dairy-free milk, (oat or soya)
  • 2 oranges, zested and one juiced, plus a little extra zest to serve (optional)
  • 2tsp cider vinegar
  • 200g golden caster sugar
  • 1tsp vanilla extract
  • 300g self-raising flour
  • 1tsp baking powder
  • 50g cocoa powder
  • 50g vegan dark chocolate, finely chopped, plus a few shavings to serve (optional)
  • 200g icing sugar

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Use a little of the vegan spread to butter the base and sides of a deep 23cm cake tin, then line with baking parchment.
  2. Put the plant milk in a jug and mix in the zest and juice of one orange and the cider vinegar. Leave to thicken slightly for 5 mins.
  3. Beat 150g of the vegan spread with the caster sugar using an electric whisk for 1 min until creamy, then add the milk mixture, vanilla extract and a small pinch of salt. Sieve in the flour, baking powder and cocoa. Beat again until combined, and scrape into the prepared tin. Bake for 35 mins – 40 mins until risen and firm to the touch, and a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. Leave the cake to cool for 10 mins in the tin, then turn out on a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. To make the icing, melt the chocolate in short bursts in the microwave, stirring well between each burst, or in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (ensuring the bowl doesn’t touch the water), until smooth. Leave to cool for 5 mins. Whisk the remaining vegan spread (just under 100g) with the icing sugar and zest of the remaining orange for a few mins until creamy, then mix in the cooled chocolate until smooth.
  5. Put the cooled chocolate cake on a cake stand or plate, and smooth the frosting over the top, spreading it to the sides. Will keep for up to three days in an airtight cake tin. Decorate with more orange zest and chocolate shavings, if you like.
