Thyme Syrup Drenched Mini Cakes | V + Gf
- for the mini cakes
- 100 grams brown rice flour
- 50 grams potato starch
- 60 grams coconut sugar
- 100 milliliters almond milk
- 40 grams soy yogurt
- 20 milliliters light olive oil
- 8 grams baking powder
- a pinch vanilla bean powder

- for the thyme syrup
- 50 grams maple syrup
- 120 milliliters water
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- a few sprigs fresh thyme
- preheat oven to 170 C and have ready a muffin pan. I used a silicone one for easier release, but if you have a regular metal pan make sure to grease the sides.
- in a medium sized mixing bowl combine all the dry ingredients and stir them together.rnmix almond milk and vinegar in a separate glass container and allow to curdle for a few minutes.rnadd yogurt and oil to the curdled mixture. whisk vigorously to emulsify. pour wet ingredients into dry and mix until just combined.
- bake the cakes.rndivide the batter evenly between 6 muffin cups of your tray. tap the pan a few times on the counter to smooth out the tops and bake for 15 minutes.rncheck for doneness with a toothpick. if it comes out clean, remove the cakes from the oven and let cool a bit before flipping them onto a serving plate.
- cook the syrup.rnwhile the cakes are baking, combine cornstarch with a few spoonfuls of water in a small saucepan. add remaining water and maple syrup, whisk to fully dissolve the starch and add the thyme.rncook on low, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. don't discard the thyme sprigs, as they will keep infusing the syrup with their aroma.rnstore in a glass container until ready to serve. rnthis thyme syrup can be prepped in advance and stored in the fridge.
- serve the cakes.rndrizzle a generous dose of syrup over the warm cakes and enjoy right away!
