Gailz Birthday Cake - Yum!


Last year was my first birthday of not being allowed to eat granulated sugar, so I did not have a birthday cake.  This year I decided to make one and think it came out very well.


PREHEAT OVEN - 350 degrees F.

Ingredients:

1 cup flour (I used half coconut flour and half regular)
2/3 cup honey
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup milk of your choice
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
 
What to do:
 
I used my Kitchen-aid stand mixer to mix everything together, but if you don't have one, just mix everything together in a bowl.  Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and cocoa powder first. Add oil, honey, vanilla, and egg. Mix until well combined. 
Pour/scrape batter into a 9" pan. 
 
Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F. Test with toothpick.
 
LET CAKE COOL... then frost with your choice of frosting.  I used the recipe I used for Easter cookies (posted on this blog)... and topped with strawberries.
