Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Flour

• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder

• 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda

• 1/8 teaspoon Salt

• 3/4 cup Sugar

• 1 tablespoon Fresh Lavender (halve amount if using dried lavender)

• 1/2 cup Plant Milk

• 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

• 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil

• 1.5 cups Icing Sugar

• 5 tablespoons of Lemon juice

 

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius

2. Using a coffee grinder or food processor, blend the fresh lavender and sugar until the lavender is finely ground and incorporated into the sugar. Set aside.

3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

4. Add the sugar-lavender into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix.

5. Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the plant milk, vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.

6. Pour the mixture into a greased loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes (or until knife inserted in center comes out clean) at 350 degrees. 

7. Set the cake aside to cool as you prepare the lemon drizzle. Sift the icing sugar into a bowl and add 3-4 tablespoons of lemon juice; whisk and add the lemon juice slowly until your desired consistency. The drizzle should be opaque and thick, but smooth enough to pour over cake. 

8. Once the cake is cooled, remove from the pan and pour the lemon drizzle on top. Decorate with fresh lavender. So good and unique!
