Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a baking pan. This will prevent the cake from sticking.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the rice flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, and salt. Sifting helps create a light and airy cake.

  • In a separate saucepan, melt the jaggery with two tablespoons of water over low heat. Alternatively, microwave in 30-second intervals until melted. Set aside to cool.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, cooled melted jaggery, yogurt, oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Add the baking soda to the wet ingredients and mix gently. Let it sit for 3-5 minutes until small bubbles appear. The baking soda will react with the acidic yogurt to create a light and fluffy cake.

  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can make the cake tough.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

  • If you find the cake a little hard on top, sprinkle jaggery syrup (1 tablespoon of jaggery melted in 2 tablespoons of water) on top to make it more moist.
  • For an extra fudgy texture, add a handful of dairy-free dark chocolate chips or chunks to the batter just before baking.
  • If you want to enhance the cake's rise and softness, let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before pouring it into the baking tin.
  • To naturally intensify the chocolate flavor, dissolve 1-2 teaspoons of instant coffee powder in the warm milk before mixing it into the batter.

Expert Tips

  • For a richer flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder and dark chocolate.
  • Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake. Mix until just combined.
  • Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

Storage Instructions

  • Leftover cake can be sliced and frozen individually. Wrap each piece in parchment paper and store in an airtight container for up to a month. To serve, thaw at room temperature or warm gently in the microwave.
