Mary's Buttermilk Chocolate Cake Recipe
Feeding the Whole Family by Cynthia Lair
For a dairy free version substitute 1 cup soymilk with 1 tablespoon lemon juice added for buttermilk.
2 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 cup organic cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon double acting baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup cold-pressed vegetable oil
1 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder, and baking soda together in a bowl. Combine liquids separately, then stir into flour mixture. Pour into two 8" cake pans which have been lightly oiled or lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30 minutes.
My comments: I made it dairy free. I didn't use organic cocoa powder and it was plain old vegetable oil, but I did use real maple syrup. A word of warning: don't stick your finger in to taste the batter. It's nasty! I thought the cake would be horrible, but I might as well bake it anyway since I'd wasted the ingredients. Once baked, it's lovely!
