Course Dessert

Ingredients

Sponge:

  • 2 cups self-raising flour or gluten-free flour
  • 1/4 cup dark cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups soy milk + 1 teaspoon vinegar or dairy-free buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup yogurt dairy-free or 5-10% fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • Pinch of salt

Topping:

  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup boiling water
  • 6 tablespoons dark cocoa powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F).
  • Lightly grease a square baking pan (approximately 22cm or 8.5 inches).
  • Mix together soy milk and vinegar; set aside to thicken (this substitutes for dairy buttermilk).
  • Mix in the remaining wet ingredients: yogurt and olive oil.
  • Sift in the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  • Gently mix until just combined.
  • Pour the cake mixture into the greased baking pan.
  • Sprinkle the light brown sugar and cocoa powder over the cake batter.
  • Carefully pour the boiling water over the back of a spoon onto the pudding (this prevents the batter from splitting).
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is almost set.
  • Allow to cool slightly before serving with ice cream and an extra drizzle of olive oil.
