so i’m learning more and more about celiacs
and what i’m learning is that people of celiacs often have also dairy and egg allergies so i
want to introduce a few more vegan cake recipes that are so tasty that vegan and non-vegans
gluten and non-gluten eaters can enjoy together but i haven’t really tried to make any
kind of vegan cream cakes or sponge cakes so that will be a new adventure for myself so
i figured i’m going to start with the simplest recipe which should be a vanilla cake i looked
up a few recipes and now the only thing i have to figure out is how i’m going to make this recipe
gluten-free and vegan and if you like to learn more about gluten-free baked deliciousness make
sure to subscribe to my channel and i have a book out it is on kindle unlimited and so it’s free
if you have that subscription and it’s called gluten-free sugar gasol so i’m gonna get going
with my gluten-free vegan vanilla cake experiment and the first thing i have to figure out is my
flower combination so i’m gonna default back to my three flower combinations which i know have
worked in the past and then i’m gonna make two new variations of it and the three recipes i’m
gonna try out is first my vanilla sponge cake then i’m gonna try out my pound cake flour
combination and i’m gonna try out also my vanilla cake recipe flour combination and i said i’m
going to try them two more custom variations out and let’s see how that’s going to turn out for me
here’s my vanilla sponge cake flour combination i already have it pre-mixed so i’m just going
to weigh 45 grams and i’m gonna label it so that’s going to be version one and my version
two will be my vanilla cake flour combination and yes i’m measuring very small amounts so i
don’t end up with 10 different vanilla cakes and have to figure out how to eat
all of them so that’s my version two and that’s my vanilla cake number three is
gonna be my pound cake flour combination and now i’m gonna start with
my custom flour combinations the difference between my custom flour
combinations four and five is that the number four uses sweet rice flour and the number five
uses potato starch i’m going to add now 34 grams of sugar to each of my flour combination bowls i’m
gonna add a pinch of salt and a quarter teaspoon of baking soda which is called an island bread
soda that was confusing when i just moved here and a quarter teaspoon of baking powder and i’m
gonna add 16 grams of oil to each of the bowls now that’s a tricky measurement to make so i’m
gonna measure first how much one tablespoon of oil weighs and then i can use tablespoon as my
measurement instead of weighing 16 grams of oil so one and a half tablespoon of oil should
be approximately 16 grams of oil and that’s much easier to measure i like to use sunflower
oil or rub seed oil because it doesn’t have any additional flavors and for the vanilla
flavor i’m going to add now half a teaspoon of vanilla extract now i have to add vegan milk
to each of the bowls as well and i’m gonna measure about a quarter cup for each of them i’m gonna
use today coconut milk but you can also use almond milk or soy milk the very nice thing about some of
the very basic cake recipes is that you don’t need any additional equipment all you need is a spatula
and the whisk so i’m going to quick combine the ingredients and i’m just going to use a whisk
fuller the batter of a vanilla cake is normally pretty liquid while i’m mixing into different
rolls i’m actually feeling how the different flour combinations create sort of a different
texture it’s kind of neat the only thing what i have to add now to a different flour combination
is a quarter teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and a combination of baking powder baking soda
and apple cider vinegar or you can also use white vinegar helps the cake to rise and i want
to show you a really nifty little experiment i’m gonna add to this bowl a little bit of
baking soda and now i’m gonna add some apple cider vinegar and check this out can you see how
it foams up that’s pretty i love this experiment so i’m gonna add now to each of the bowls
a quarter teaspoon of apple cider vinegar i’m certainly going to give it a quick stir again
i’m going to pour now my flour combinations into small little cupcake forms i’m going to bake it
and then i can compare my different variations of my vanilla cake and see how they turned out i’m
going to put all my trials in the oven for about 30 minutes and see if they’re ready if not i’m
gonna just increase the time a little bit so here my gluten-free vegan vanilla cake experiments
and i may have baked them a little bit too long my first variation seems to have a little bit of
a muffin top so that might not be quite what i’m looking for but i’m seeing that number three my
pound cake recipe and my number 4 custom flour recipes seem to look pretty good i’m going to take
them now out of the muffin form and let them cool down and then i’m going to open up the cakes and
check which variation looks good inside as well so here’s the moment of truth i’m gonna check out
which of the vegan vanilla gluten-free cupcakes create this really nice tasty cake which
i would be proud of serving to my friends some of the vanilla cupcakes didn’t really make
it i mean they’re too much of a muffin top so i’m not going to even cut them open and check how
they look like however there are two possibilities one is the vanilla cake where i used my pound
cake recipe and the other one is a custom flour combination and let’s compare the number one which
is the pound cake there’s a nice cutting into it it is pretty soft and it just fell apart on
me okay so that’s maybe not ideal and let’s try the custom version now the custom version is
actually holding up so that’s kind of nice so i think i’m gonna try this one more time and this
time i’m gonna use a little bit less coconut milk and i’m going to replace the oil with vegan butter
substitute and see if there are any differences and for this experiment i’m just going to try
out my gluten-free pound cake flour combination so let’s check it out and see how my second
trial round went well here i can lift off the top so that might not be good for a cake okay so
this is the one with vegan butter uh it’s denser so that makes sense but see how crumbly
this is i mean you don’t really want to have a crumbly cake so that is not quite as
successful here’s the version where i used oil and i’m noticing the same thing it’s a very
crumbly cake and yeah i don’t really want to have a crumbly cake or at least not crumbly that
when i put my fork in it the cake falls apart and that’s probably because it’s a gluten-free
flour conveyor and here we go into composting i wonder how many more trials i need before i
get this one right so for my trial number three i’m gonna use now flaxseed egg and facilium
hust and compare those two and see if that helps of making my cake not just crumble crumble
along or something like that so i’m hoping the fissilium house and the flaxseed eggs are gonna
act here as glue i’m gonna make now a flaxseed egg i’m gonna prepare the facilium husk and i’m going
to add the facilium husk to one of the bowls and here are my finished third trial cupcakes
let’s have my fingers crossed that my trial number three worked out these are the cupcakes with the
flax seeds and that are the cupcakes where i used facilium husk i’m nervous okay i’m getting
cutting in into the one with the flax seeds oh look at that it’s holding up and it’s not
falling apart huh let’s see how it tastes and it’s nice and moist i’m excited so this one
is the cupcake where i used sicilian pasta if i compare the cupcakes with the facilium house
it’s a little bit chewier than the one where i use the flaxseed eggs but both of them are workable
one with priscillium house definitely creates a little bit of a gummier sort of cupcake and the
winner will be the recipe using a flaxseed egg and yes i finally figured it out and i don’t have
to do more trials what a relief i hope you enjoyed today’s show and if you did please make sure to
