Beetroot Cake

Spray oil
200g almost a can of beetroot
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup hot water
1 cup, firmly packed brown sugar
2 eggs, lightly whisked
1/2 cup rice or coconut milk
1/4 cup light tasting oil or coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 1/2 cups self-raising GF flour, sifted

Cardamom frosting

1/4 cup pure icing sugar, sifted
Pinch of ground cardamom
4 1/2 tsp Rice milk
Sprinkle with chocolate ants!


Process the beetroot in a blender or food processor. Combine dry ingredients first, then wet. Pour in a sprayed cake tin and bake at 180 for about an hour until a knife comes out clean. Once out and cooled you can ice it! :)

Very tasty, cannot, CANNOT taste the beetroot. It is slightly dry so I may consider adding the whole tin next time and perhaps even the juice...maybe.
