Plant based food is not as complicated as some may say. Here’s the recipe for a chocolate millet cake that is really easy to make. Perfect for warm evenings, rainy days and sunny weekends. Actually, it is perfect for any time;) And what’s most important it’s also gluten free so if you’re gluten sensitive, this cake is for you.
Ingredients:
Crust:
½ cup dates
1 cup mixed nuts
2 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
1/3 cup coconut shreds
Millet filling:
100g dry millet
½ cup plant based milk
4 tbsp coconut shreds
2 tbsp cacao powder
1/2 cup erythritol
1.5 tsp agar agar powder
grated rind of 1 orange
Additionally:
coconut shreds/ nuts for decoration
Instructions:
Grind the nuts and dates well. Add melted coconut milk and shreds. Combine all ingredients. Press the mixture evenly into a tart pan (diameter about 25-26 cm). Put it into the fridge.
Meanwhile, cook the millet until it’s soft. Drain the millet and combine hot millet with milk and agar agar powder (this time we do not cook agar - we want to end up with creamy cake). Add the rest of the ingredients and mix.
Pour the mixture into the crust. Put some coconut shreds/ nuts on top. Chill in the refrigerator for a few hours/ overnight preferably. Enjoy!
