- 4 tablespoons coconut oil or sub vegetable oil

- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 8 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/4 cups self raising flour
- 1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder
- 1/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

- 6 tablespoons coconut yogurt or you could use coconut whipped cream
- 2 tablespoons strawberry jam

- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
- Mix together the oil, yogurt, vinegar, maple syrup and vanilla

- Add a splash of milk and mix well (keep adding milk until you can get rid of all the flour)
- Divide the mixture between two circular cake tins lined with greased baking paper
- Bake in oven for around 15 minutes
- Once out of the oven, take the cakes out of the tins immediately and leave to cool on a wire rack
- Make the frosting by mixing together the coconut yogurt and strawberry jam (place this in the fridge for a few hours to firm up as it'll be easier to work with)
- Once the sponges have completely cooled, spread one with some of the frosting, sandwich the other one on top, and cover the top and sides of the cake with the remainder of the frosting
- Arrange the fresh strawberries on top of the cake to decorate
