Yummy. I've been looking for a new cake to make and this recipe sounds delish! This is a healthier cake and would be vegan, but there is honey added. From The Best of Silver Hills Delicious Vegetarian Cuisine cookbook.
Ingredients:
1 cup raw cashews
1/2 cup honey
2 teaspoons egg substitute
1 teaspoon lemon flavoring
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold water
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup unbleached white flour
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon peel, finely grated
1/4 cup maple syrup
Directions:
1. Blend first 6 ingredients in blender until smooth.
2. Pour blended mixture into a large bowl and add flour and baking powder. Mix well.
3. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, pecans and lemon peel.
4. Pour maple syrup into the bottom of an oiled 8 x 8 cake pan.
5. Sprinkle pecan mixture over maple syrup. Then spoon cake batter on top of pecans. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes or until lightly browned.
6. Turn cake out of pan and let cool.
