This recipe came from Sue Cook’s “What DO You Eat?” It is nice, simple and uses maple syrup rather than sugar. It usually turns out lovely and light.

  • 85ml Sunflower Oil
  • 170ml maple syrup
  • 170ml soya milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp cider vinegar

Method

  1. Preheat oven to Gas Mark 5 or equivalent
  2. Sieve flour into mixing bowl
  3. In a jug, whisk together the oil, maple syrup, soya milk, vanilla essence and vinegar
  4. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and beat well until smooth.
  5. Grease an 8-inch cake tin
  6. Bake in oven for 40 minutes
  7. Leave to cool for an hour or more
  8. Use a large bread knife to slice horizontally in half to make a sandwich and spread a jam or filling of your choice on one half
