- 145g g Sunflower Oil
- 125 g Unsweetened Apple Sauce
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1,5 cup Gluten Free Flour
- 2 tbsp Cocoa Powder
- 2 tbsp Oat Flour
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- 3/4 tsp Table Salt
- 1/2 tsp Xanthan Gum
- 1/4 tsp Bicarb of Soda

- 190 g Full-fat Coconut Milk

Instructions
Cake
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a 9"x13" pan with oil or vegan butter and line with a parchment paper sling for easy removal
- Ina large bowl, combine sugar, non-dairy milk, oil, apple sauce and vanilla with a whisk
- Sift the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, oat flour, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum, and bicarb of soda together, then add them into the wet ingredients. Whisk well to form the batter- about 1 minute
- Pour the batter into prepared cake pan and spread evenly
- Bake in the oven for 36-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean
- Allow to cool completely before icing
Icing
- Melt the chocolate. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool, stirring occasionally
- Using hand mixers or a stand mixer with a whisk attachment on low speed, gradually mix the coconut milk into the chocolate until smooth
- Whisk the icing sugar a little at a time, followed by the vanilla. Beat until smooth. At this point, the texture should be firm but spreadable and slightly soft. Next, you’re going to chill your icing, but you may need your hand mixer at the very end, so simply set it aside now to save yourself on dishes!
- Place the bowl of frosting in the fridge for up to an hour
- Remove frosting from the fridge and give it a quick whiz with the hand beaters. If it still feels too loose or difficult to pipe or spread, add additional icing sugar 2 tablespoons at a time
