Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp green tea powder (plus more for garnish)
  • 1 tsp chlorophyll powder
  • 2 cups almond milk
  • 1 cups light agave nectar
  • .5 cups canola oil
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • confectioner's sugar for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Using Baker’s Joy cooking spray, carefully coat each rib of the mini bundtlette pans.
  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, green tea powder, and chlorophyll. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together almond milk, agave nectar, canola oil, and apple cider vinegar.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Whisk until just combined. Don’t over mix.
  • Using a 3 tablespoon-sized cookie scoop, scoop batter two and a half times into each bundtlette. Slam against the counter to force any extra air bubbles to the top.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean with a few crumbs clinging to it.
  • Cool the cakes for about 5 minutes before turning out to cool fully.
  • To garnish and serve, top with vegan matcha royal icing by combining 3:1 confectioner’s sugar to matcha, thinned out with hot water and whisked until thick but pourable consistency is achieved. Alternatively, garnish with powdered sugar sifted through a fine-mesh strainer, or topped with a dollop of freshly whipped coconut cream with a touch of vanilla extract.
