my husband went on a man date last night so i had the house to myself. i indulged in a killer salad, watching my favorite bad tv shows, and made the yummiest lavender loaf!! the recipe called for lemon but i didn't have any around the house and i wasn't feeling up for hitting the store. as well, i was going to make this vegan since we've been finding that it actually tastes better, but failed when i realized the only milk i had was half and half (i loathe milk and only had it for my morning coffees). either way, this cake was super delicious with all my substitutions!
lavender (lemon) cake:
1/2 cup coconut oil
1 cup organic sugar
1.5 cup flour
1/2 cup
apple sauce
1/2 cup coconut milk (or any milk substitute)
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 tablespoon lemon zest (i omitted)
juice of 1 large lemon (i omitted)
1 tablespoon dried lavender buds
cream coconut oil and sugar until fluffy. add apple sauce slowly until combined. in separate bowl whisk flour, salt, and baking soda. combine milk, lemon zest, and lemon juice together. alternating between flour and milk combine into sugar mixture. once combined add lavender buds and allow to fold in.
pour dough in greased bread pan and cook on 325 for 35-45 minutes or until a knife inserted in center come out clean. frost immediately after taking out oven.
Omg! Sounds and looks amazing! Shall we trying this soon! :D xx
