This cake was adapted from Wacky Cake recipes which apparently became popular during WWII because they didn’t require eggs or milk.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup Coconut Flour
1½ cup Almond Flour
½ cup Brown Sugar*
1/4 cup White Sugar (Both sugars can be replaced with
1/2 cup maple syrup)
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 tsp Baking soda
1/4 Cup cooking oil
1 Cup Water
1 tsp. Vinegar (I use coconut vinegar, but have also used
Apple Cider Vinegar)
2 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 tsp. (Chinese) Five Star Spice
Makes one 8” layer.
Mix all dry ingredients thoroughly in a 8” square or round, glass or CorningWare® pan.
Next: Add the vanilla, oil, and water. Once the batter is thoroughly mixed, add the vinegar and baking soda and work those in with a non-metallic spoon.
Bake in the lower part of the oven at 370° F for 30-35 minutes
*White sugar works too, but I think the brown sugar helps hide the vinegar taste.
This cake was adapted and created at 5,680 ft. elevation. It may need a little more soda and vinegar at sea level.
