Servings: persons

190 ml (6.7fl oz) almond milk
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
85 ml (3fl oz) vegetable or rapeseed oil
170 ml (6fl oz) maple syrup
210 g (7.4oz) plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
0.5 tsp bicarbonate of soda
0.25 tsp fine sea salt
2 large ripe avocados
0.5 lime, juice only
2 tbsp agave nectar
2 kiwi fruits, peeled and sliced

1
Preheat the oven to 160C.
2
Lightly grease and flour two 15cm cake tins and set aside.
3
Whisk together the almond milk and vinegar and leave to curdle for a minute or two.
4
Then add the oil and maple syrup and stir to combine.
5
Sift in the dry ingredients and whisk until incorporated and no lumps remain.
6
Divide the batter between the cake tins and place them in the oven to bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cakes comes out clean.
7
Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
8
For the icing, scoop out the flesh of the avocados and place in a food processor with the lime juice and agave.
9
Process until smooth and whipped up, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
10
Taste as you go and add more agave until you achieve the desired sweetness.
11
Remove the cooled cakes from the cake tins.
12
Spread half of the icing onto one of the cakes, then place the other cake on top and top with the remaining icing and the kiwi slices.
13
The lime juice will help to preserve the green colour of the icing, but not for too long, so its best to make the icing and assemble the cake just before you intend to serve it.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
