This treat is not gluten free as it contains spelt flour but can be altered to appeal to the gluten free eater just by swapping out spelt flour for a gluten free cake flour. Its simple as that! So I hope everyone enjoys this and has a great well full of lovely treats!

Ingredients: 

1 cup almond milk 

1/2 cup vanilla yogurt

1 tbsp. ground flaxseed

1 tsp. vanilla

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1 cup gluten free cake flour 

1 cup spelt flour ( spelt flour is not gluten free so if you want the cake to be completely gluten free use 2 cups cake flour)

1/3 cup coconut sugar

2 tbsp. stevia

4 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. salt 

2 tsp. cinnamon

1 3/4 cup blueberries

dream whip 

extra cup blueberries & approx. 1/2 tbsp. honey, mix together to create a blueberry honey sauce

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Combine all wet ingredients in a bowl ( milk, yogurt,vanilla, coconut oil) mix well. 

2. In a separate bowl combine all dry ingredients ( flaxseed, flours, coconut sugar, stevia, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, blueberries) mix well. 

3. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, mix well. Add to well greased 9x13 inch cake pan. Bake for 40 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. 

4. Let cool then using a circular object, I used the top of a mason jar haha, cut cake into circular shapes. 

5. Top with dream whip and blueberry honey sauce, enjoy!

  2. Yeah I love coconut sugar! Its my new favourite natural sweetener, I like using it in my baking as well as in smoothies and such, it has a nice caramel taste to it. I highly recommend trying it out
