Vegan Almond Lemon Cake
- 1 cup fine ground almonds
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup water
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon black rum (or orange liquor or vanilla extract)
- 1 lemon juice
- 1 lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch salt
- sliced almonds for decoration
- Mix the dry ingredients and set aside. Mix the liquid ingredients separately and combine with the dry mix using a mixer for a couple of minutes. It will become a pretty firm batter. Go ahead and dip your finger in the batter. No raw eggs in there to worry about so taste it and make sure it hits the spot. I don't like overly sweet cakes so depending on your preferences, you may want to adjust the syrup for example. Bake 45-60 minutes at 375F.
