Soft Ube Powder Cake 💜: Simple, Magical, Addictive

A soft cake with a subtle vanilla and hazelnut flavor, a mesmerizing color, and an ultra-soft texture. Perfect for cozy brunches, afternoon teas with friends, or rainy Sundays.

✨ Ingredients (for 6 to 8 servings):

• 150 g of flour (wheat, spelt or other)
• 100 g of coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
• 2 eggs
• 80 ml of neutral oil (sunflower, grape seed, etc.)
• 120 ml of vegetable milk (almond, oat, coconut, etc.)
• 2 tbsp. Ubeal ube powder
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 pinch of salt

Optional for the finishing touch:

• Coconut cream or vanilla whipped cream frosting
• Topping: coconut flakes, pistachio pieces, edible dried flowers 🌸

👩🍳 Preparation:

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan-assisted if possible).
2. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar until frothy.
3. Add the oil, plant-based milk, and ube powder. Mix well until the color is even (it should be bright purple 💜).
4. Then add the flour, yeast, and salt. Mix without overworking the dough.
5. Pour into a mold (round, cake or cupcake version).
6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes (check cooking with the blade of a knife, it should come out dry).
7. Let cool before unmolding... and add homemade icing if you want to enhance it.

💡 Chef's tip:

Pair this cake with a hot or iced ube latte for a 100% purple, 100% indulgent break. #FullPurpleMood
