Blueberry Streusel Cake Vegan Gluten Free Food

BLUEBERRY STREUSEL CAKE (VEGAN GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 160Fan/180*C and line an 8-inch square tin with parchment paper.Make the streusel topping by stirring together the flour, sugar, almonds and cinnamon and then stir in the melted butter or oil to a sticky crumbly mix.In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk and lemon juice for the cake and leave to "curdle" for 5 minutes. Now whisk in the sugar, butter or oil and vanilla essence. Sift in the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and cinnamon and pour in the ground almonds and salt. Whisk to a smooth batter and stir in the blueberries.Pour into the tin and cover evenly with the streusel top.Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and firm to touch on top (an inserted skewer will come out clean). Allow to cool in the tin for 30-60 minutes until firm enough to lift out and cool fully on a wire rack.For the icing drizzle, stir together the icing sugar with 2-3 tsp water until pourable. Slice the cake into squares, drizzle over the icing and top with extra blueberries. Store the cake in an airtight container for 2-3 days at room temperature or for 3-5 days in the fridge. You can freeze the cake once cool for up to 1 month.

BLUEBERRY STREUSEL CAKE WITH LEMON ICING

Steps:

• 1. In a small bowl, stir the streusel topping ingredients together very well until thoroughly combined and crumbly. Set aside.
• 2. Preheat the oven to 350°F Combine all of the dry cake ingredients thoroughly, making sure to set any lumps straight.
• 3. Combine the wet cake ingredients very well in a separate bowl. Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and combine well, but do not over-mix.
• 4. Gently stir in the blueberries. Lightly oil a 9.5 x 13.5-inch pan and spread the batter into it. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the cake. Bake for one hour, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool slightly before icing it.
• 5. To make the icing, begin by removing any lumps from the sugar if necessary. You can do this with your fingers, a fork, or by pouring it through a strainer or sifter. Next, combine all of the icing ingredients together well, stirring with a spoon.
• 6. When the cake is slightly cooled, drizzle the icing evenly over the top. You can pretend you are Jackson Pollack if you like. Finally, cut the cake and get ready for a serious yum situation.
