Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 240 g oat milk
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 120 g caster sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 70 g salted vegan butter or coconut oil *see notes (softened )
  • 3 tbsp cornflour
  • 263 g self raising flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Jammy Strawberries + Almonds

  • 300 g fresh strawberries
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • zest from a lemon
  • 50 g sliced almonds

Soft Crumble

  • 85 g all purpose flour
  • 52 g salted vegan butter (melted )
  • 50 g light brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180°C (356°F). Lightly grease a 10-inch springform pan with vegan butter or oil.
  2. Combine strawberries, lemon zest, cornstarch, lemon zest and sugar. Set aside.
  3. To make the soft crumble – combine all-purpose flour, brown sugar , ground cinnamon, salt and melted salted vegan butter together. Set aside.
  4. Combine oat milk with apple cider vinegar. Set aside for 5 minutes to create vegan buttermilk.
  5. Beat softened vegan butter and vanilla extract with sugar. Then, mix vegan buttermilk – it may look clumpy but that's ok!
  6. Fold in self-raising flour, cornstarch, baking powder and baking soda.
  7. Pour cake batter into the pre-greased springform pan. Top with jammy strawberries, soft crumble, and sliced almonds. Bake for 45-55 minutes. Baking time may vary, but you'll know the cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
  8. Remove cake from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Allow to cool for around 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

If you don’t have salted vegan butter, you can use un-salted vegan butter or coconut oil but you may want to add 1/4 tsp or so, or salt!
