I would love to try to make a beetroot chocolate cake! Do you have a recipe?

[@Tasmetu]

200g beets (pre-boiled)
100 g plain unsweetened yoghurt
2 eggs
70ml oil
130g flour
2 EL dark unsweetened cacao powder
70g sugar
40g grinded almonds / almond flour
1 sprinkle cinnamon
1 teaspoon of a fruity vinegar, i use apple cider
2 teaspoons bicarbonate (or baking soda)
a little butter or oil for greasing the pan
- mix yoghurt, eggs, oil and beets - puree them until liquid, set aside
- mix the dry ingredients (flour, almond flour, sugar, cacao powder, cinnamon) together
- Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ones. Mix well
- In a small bowl, mix vinegar and bicarbonate. It will react and bubble. IMMEDIATELY pour it into the dough mix and combine
- pour into your form. Note: the dough is pinkish and pretty liquid (like in my video) - it will not rise much!
- in the pre-heated oven at 160 degrees Celsius (320 Fahrenheit) for 60 to 70 minutes.
if you want chocolate covering on top:
100 g sweet cream
150 g dark chocolate
- boil the cream and pour it over the chocolate pieces and mix until melted, pour on top and let it solidify - You can also leave the cream away and simply melt some dark chocolate in a waterbath with some coconut oil
Enjoy! :)

You have to adapt it to make it vegan but I think you would love it :)
