Directions
- Preheat the oven to 180°c
- Mix the Almond milk and the vinegar together, and leave to curdle.
- In a bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients together.
- Add the sugar, oil and vanilla to the milk and vinegar mixture, and whisk until bubbles form on top.
- Add the wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients, and mix until a smooth batter forms.
- Add mini loaf cases to a baking tray , and fill with the cake batter mix, 3/4 of the way up. Spreading the mix in the loaf cases with a back of a spoon ensures the cakes have an even bake.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes. You will know they are done when you press down gently and they bring back up, or a skewer inserted comes out clean. Leave them to cool.
- For the buttercream, blitz the raspberries in a blender, and then sieve them, so you have a puree.
- Beat the margarine until smooth, then slowly beat in the icing sugar.
- Slowly add in the raspberry puree. If your buttercream is too runny, you can add in more icing sugar if you wish.
- Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag with a wide round nozzle attached, or snip off the end of a piping bag if you don’t have a nozzle. Refrigerate until the cakes are cool.
- When the loaf cakes have cooled completely, pipe the buttercream on top.
- I melted some vegan and gluten free chocolate to pipe on top of the cakes, but this is optional. Finish by placing a raspberry on the top of each loaf for decoration.
- Gobble up and enjoy!
