Ingredients
- 3 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cups coconut sugar
- 1/3 cup raw cacao powder optional
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 cup avocado oil
- 1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 360 degrees F and line an 8-inch or 9-inch springform pan or cake pan with parchment paper.
- Add the flour, sugar, cocoa powder and baking powder to a mixing bowl and stir well using a whisk until any clumps are out.
- In a separate bowl or measuring cup, combine the water, oil and vanilla extract.
- Pour the liquid into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir everything together until combined. The batter will be very thick - this is normal!
- Transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan and smooth into an even layer.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven 30 to 35 minutes, until the cake has risen substantially and has a nice firm crust on top.
- Allow cake to cool at least 20 minutes before releasing it from the mold. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, leave plain, or frost it with frosting of choice.
