Orange-Raspberry Loaf
Cake Ingredients:
1 tbsp chia seeds
3/4 cup non-dairy milk (soy, almond, oat, etc.)
3 tbsp orange juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tsp strained raspberries
1/3 cup coconut oil (or any non-dairy butter substitute)
2/3 cup sugar
1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1⁄2 tsp baking powder
1⁄4 tsp baking soda
1⁄4 tsp salt
1 tbsp raspberry seeds
2 tbsp orange zest (I also add a little extra of this)
1 tbsp poppy seeds (these are optional)
Icing Ingredients
2/3 cup powdered sugar (you can use a little less if you want it less sweet)
2 tbsp orange juice
1 tbsp orange zest (adding extra is a yummy option or you can add some poppy
seeds to the glaze as well!)
2 tsp strained raspberries
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 0F, and strain raspberries (to do this you simply take a strainer, put your raspberries in it and press with a spoon to remove the liquid into a bowl, make sure to save the seeds that don’t get strained as well)
Step 2: Mix chia, milk, orange juice, raspberry juice and vanilla- set aside and let
thicken.
Step 3: Cream the coconut oil and sugar.
Step 4: In a separate bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt,
raspberry seed, poppy seed and orange zest.
Step 5: Once the chia mixture is a bit thicker add to the sugar mixture, combine
well.
Step 6: Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Step 7: Pour into pan (either greased well, or lined with parchment) and bake for
40-45 minutes.
Step 8: Remove from oven and let cool (if parchment is used remove parchment)
Step 9: While cooling mix together icing ingredients.
Step 10: Place cake back in pan and pour icing all over and let it drip onto the
sides, it will soak into them!!
