Vegan Coffee and Walnut Cake Recipe

Ingredients
Sponges:
• 100 ml rapeseed oil or sunflower oil, plus extra for greasing
• 85 g walnuts, plus extra for decoration
• 280 ml soya milk
• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
• 70 ml strongly brewed coffee
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 220 g soft light brown sugar
• 2½ tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• 250 g plain flour

Vegan Coffee Frosting:
• 280g icing sugar
• 100g dairy-free spread
• 1½ tbsp strongly brewed black coffee, cooled
Method
1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
2. Grease 2 x 20cm round cake tins and line with baking parchment.
3. Finely chop the walnuts.
4. Mix the soya milk with the apple cider vinegar or juice and allow to sit for five minutes.
5. Pour the coffee, oil and vanilla extract into a bowl and add the soya milk mixture. Mix to combine.
6. Tip the sugar, baking powder and salt into the bowl and sift over the flour. Fold in using a metal spoon or spatula.
7. Stir in the chopped walnuts.
8. Divide the mixture between the tins and bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden, risen and starting to come away from the sides of the tin.
9. Leave to cool in the tin for ten minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
10. Beat the spread for a few minutes using an electric whisk. Gradually sift in the icing sugar, beating well after each addition.
11. Add the coffee and beat. Sift in a little more icing sugar if it looks too runny.
12. Spread half the icing on the bottom of one sponge and place the second sponge on top. Swirl the remaining frosting on the top of the cake and decorate with the walnut halves.
