Simple Sourdough Chocolate Cake
 
 
Ingredients
  • 1¾ cup fresh-ground spelt flour or pastry flour
  • 1 cup sourdough starter
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 to 1½ cups sucanat
  • 1 cup softened coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 egg
  • ¾ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon teeccino (optional)
Instructions
  1. Combine the starter, milk, and flour in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Cover and allow to soak at room temperature for 8 to 12 hours or longer.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9x13 cake pan.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sucanat, coconut oil, vanilla, egg, and cocoa powder, beating until smooth.
  4. Incorporate the sourdough mixture in.
  5. Add the salt, baking soda, and teeccino and beat until smooth.
  6. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. After cooling, frost the cake in the pan, or remove and frost as desired.
Notes
Leftovers do best when refrigerated, though I personally think the cake tastes best at room temperature, or better yet, still warm out of the oven!
