Ingredients

SERVINGS: Makes 1 (6-inch) round cake
  • 120 grams all-purpose flour
  • 83 grams sugar
  • 12 grams almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 160 milliliters oat milk
  • 20 grams sunflower oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1½ teaspoons lemon juice
For the icing:
  • 75 grams powdered sugar
  • 3½ teaspoons lemon juice

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a 6-inch round pan.

Sift the flour, sugar, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl. Whisk well to combine.

In another bowl, combine the oat milk, sunflower oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and use a spatula to gently mix together. Don’t over-mix. The batter should be a bit lumpy.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for about 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out on a wire rack to cool completely.

To make the icing, whisk the powdered sugar and lemon juice together until smooth and drizzle over the fully cooled cake.
