Gluten Free Spiced Prune Cake Recipes

GLUTEN-FREE, DAIRY-FREE OLD FASHIONED PRUNE CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 300F(yes, that low). Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
• 2. Place the prunes in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft...about 8 min. Drain the water and mash the prunes. You can just mash them up with a fork, or you can puree them, as I did. Set aside.
• 3. Thoroughly combine the honey, sugar, eggs, oil and vanilla.
• 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
• 5. Add the wet to the dry, along with the buttermilk and stir just enough to combine.(don't overmix)
• 6. Pour batter into the pan and bake for 35-40 min. Watch carefully toward the end so as to not overbake.
• 7. Top with your choice of glaze, powdered sugar, or sweetened whipped cream.
• 8. **To make soured milk, put 1T of lemon juice or vinegar in a measuring cup and add your non-dairy milk to the 1c line.
