In a medium mixing bowl, combine chia seeds and coconut milk and set aside for about 10 minutes. This cake will freeze really well and you can even freeze individually wrapped slices for a quick breakfast treat on the go. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 C) and grease an 8x8 inch pan with a light amount of oil. Make sure to cool completely before adding the powdered sugar otherwise it will melt. I bake in a convection oven and things are always done before the standard oven baking time. Standard baking time for a cake like this is usually just under and hour but if your crumbs are browning too much before the cake is done you can use a tin foil tent over the top to help prevent that. Ovens vary so make sure to check often for doneness (is that a word?). I would definitely butter and flour your pan of choice before baking as you don’t want anything to stick and that’s standard practice for a cake of any kind. Don’t over mix the crumbs!Īfter you’ve got the simple recipe for the crumbs mixed it’s smooth sailing to the oven. I’ve been buying the large bag from Whole Foods Market lately as it’s a better deal than buying two small bags. Duncan Hines cakes always have that slight coconut flavor.įor the chocolate chips you can use any vegan ones you prefer whether they’re darker or sweeter – that’s up to you. I added some vanilla, almond and coconut extracts to my cake batter to make it taste a little more “bakery style”. There are a lot of good basic vegan vanilla cake recipes out there so if you have a favorite and have the time, go for it. You can certainly make one from scratch or use a boxed mix like I did. This is a pretty easy cake to make and to start you’ll need a yellow cake. A lot of the bakeries would have more of a Danish pastry style bottom layer, but there were a few that made them with a yellow cake layer at the bottom with chocolate chips and those were my favorites! Sprinkle on a few chips before adding the crumbs. Call them coffee cakes or crumb cakes, I just call them delicious! I’m from NY and one of my favorite bakery items were the crumb cakes with a 2/3 crumb to cake ratio.
