Vegan Chai Coffee Cake, I didn’t think you would taste this good. I have always been a big chai fan and there are also already very tasty chai porridge and chai truffles on this site. The cake still surprised me once again and I am happy that I still have a small piece in the fridge.
Vegan chai coffee cake
What does chai actually mean? The term can stand for very many different things. In Asia and South Asia, chai stands for a special tea preparation made from spices. Thereby it stands as an abbreviation for Masala Chai. However, there is no set recipe for the composition of chai and many families have all their own blend of spices. The common spices found in chai are cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, pepper, bay leaf, cloves and nutmeg.

Simple vegan sponge cake
The preparation of the cake is very simple. First I put flour, cornstarch, raw cane sugar, ginger, cinnamon, bourbon vanilla, cardamom, cloves, pepper , salt, baking powder and baking soda in a baking bowl and mix until well combined. Add to this the melted margarine, vegetable yogurt and vegetable milk. Now mix everything together until smooth and put into the loaf pan. The rest is done by the oven.
In the meantime, I mix the frosting of powdered sugar and plant milk, which gives the cake its final sweet touch.
Tip: If you want to make the cake completely oil-free, use apple pulp instead of margarine. However, I find the variant with margarine better. Thanks to the yogurt, the cake is oil-reduced anyway.
