I used a medium cake tin so for a taller cake just make it in a smaller tin.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Orgran all purpose flour
- ½ cup Nuttlex
- ⅓ brown sugar
- 1 vanilla pod, seeds scraped out of the pod, or 1-2 tsps vanilla essence, to taste
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tsp Orgran No Egg whisked with 60mls water until thick
- 1 small sweet potato, cooked and mashed
- 50ml goat’s milk
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ cup icing sugar
- 1-1½ tbsps orange juice
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Grease a small- medium sized cake tin.
- Cream the Nuttlex with the vanilla seeds or vanilla essence, sugar, nutmeg and salt.
- Add in the No Egg.
- Blend well until combined.
- Add the mashed sweet potato and goat’s milk.
- Combine the baking powder and flour in a separate bowl.
- Slowly add the flour to the sweet potato mixture and mix well.
- Pour the cake mixture into the cake tin.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a skewer placed in the middle comes out clean.
- Leave the cake to cool in the tin for 5 minutes.
- Remove to a wire wrack for cool completely.
- To make the icing, mix the icing sugar with the orange juice.
- Spread the icing on top.
- Serve or store in an airtight container in the fridge.
