Recipe Remix: Amma's Caramel Chocolate Cake (Vegan & Gluten-Free)

Image
Once upon a time I started a blog and never updated it.... Here is my version of my Amma's Caramel Chocolate Cake, deliciously remixed as vegan and gluten-free.  If you use eggs, it is dairy and gluten-free but obviously not vegan. It would change the cake texture slightly but as you can see from the photo, it's quite "cake-ish" even without eggs. I used this Gluten & Dairy-Free Chocolate Olive Oil Cake recipe from Baked Bree  with a few modifications. My Modified Cake Recipe: 6 Tablespoons cocoa powder 1/2 cup boiling water (microwaved in a glass measuring cup for 3 minutes) 2 teaspoons  vanilla 1 cup  almond meal (I buy almond meal from Bulk Barn but you can also make your own with a food processor, vitamix, or coffee grinder. It's actually really easy, I promise) 1/2 cup coconut flour (the original recipe just uses 1 1/2 cups almond meal, which would work perfectly well, I'm sure) 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt
