- 2/3 cup packed ((125g) organic brown sugar)

- 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon ((95 mL) unsulphured molasses (not blackstrap molasses))
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) strongly brewed hot coffee
- Vanilla Cream Sauce ((recipe below))
- Pomegranate seeds ((optional))

- 4 tablespoons (56g) vegan butter
- 1/2 cup (110g) coconut cream*

Langkah-langkah
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F/176°C. Arrange a rack in the bottom third or middle of the oven. Line a 9x5-inch (23x13 cm) loaf pan with parchment paper, letting the excess hang over the long sides to form a sling.
-
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves. Whisk well to ensure the baking soda is evenly mixed in.
-
Pour the aquafaba into a small bowl. Using a handheld electric mixer or stand mixer, whip the aquafaba on medium speed for 45-60 seconds, or until uniformly foamy.
-
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the whipped aquafaba, oat milk sunflower oil, brown sugar, and vanilla.
-
Wipe out the bowl used for the aquafaba. Pour the molasses and hot coffee into the bowl, and whisk until well combined. Pour into the well with the liquid ingredients.
-
Using your electric mixer on slow speed, combine the dry and wet ingredients just until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Stop mixing as soon as the batter comes together - do not overmix. It’s okay if there are some lumps.
-
Pour the cake batter into the lined loaf pan and smooth the surface with a rubber spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, until the cake is relatively firm and springs back when touched and a toothpick inserted into the top sides of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs.
-
Transfer the pan to a wire rack and cool for 10-15 minutes. Then, using the parchment paper handles, remove the bread from the pan and cool on the rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing. When ready to serve, drizzle the Vanilla Cream Sauce on top and scatter with pomegranate seeds, if using.
-
Add the powdered sugar, vegan butter and coconut cream to a small or medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter has melted.
-
Bring to boil and keep at a boil for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and salt.
-
Allow to cool for a few minutes before spooning over the cake.
