Wholemeal Vanilla Loaf Cake
Sometimes you just need cake. And with cake it really doesn't need to be fancy to be good. This may be a bit plain in the looks department but it is moist, buttery and scented with vanilla and really, who could ask for more?
We ate ours warm from the oven with lots of my Roasted Strawberry Chia Seed Jam. Absolutely delicious!!!
Wholemeal Vanilla Loaf Cake
Adapted from Lisa Corduff
100g rice malt syrup
130g butter, at room temperature
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda
250g wholemeal flour
150g milk (I used homemade almond and coconut milk)
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees C / 160 degrees fan-forced. Grease and line a loaf tin with baking paper and set aside.
Place the butter and syrup into the thermomix bowl and beat for 1 min / SP 4.
Add eggs one at a time while mixing at SP 4 until well combined.
Add all other ingredients and mix for 30 secs / SP 4, scraping down the bowl as needed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and cool in the tin for 5 minutes before turning out to cool completely.
If you don't have a thermomix just use a food processor, stand mixer or electric beaters and follow the same instructions. It may just take a little longer for each step!

Tuesdays with Dorie: Rum-Drenched Vanilla Cakes, a Trifle and some News

After realising these cakes were a variation on a standard pound cake I immediately thought trifle! We're not huge fans of rum (although I always have a stash for my Christmas baking) so I used just 1 ts in the batter. Surprisingly this was enough to create not only a great taste but a fabulous aroma while baking.
I made half the recipe (1 cake) and ended up with a mountain of perfect little cake cubes.


My excuse? We've been cooking up anther little project around here. Due mid-November. Oh, and it's a boy! :-)
