1 cup almond flour 1 and 1/2 cups organic all-purpose flour 2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1/4 cup maple syrup 1/2 cup coconut sugar 1/2 cup applesauce 2 tsp apple cider vinegar (acv) 1 cup almond milk 1 flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 2 tbsp water) cookie dough ingredients: 1/2 cup almond flour 1/2 cup oat flour 1/4 cup runny peanut butter 1/4 cup maple syrup 1/3 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup chocolate chips melted with 1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 9-inch round cake pan.
in a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cocoa powder.
in another bowl, mix together the maple syrup, coconut sugar, applesauce, apple cider vinegar, almond milk, and flax egg.
add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until well combined. make sure not to overmix.
pour 1/2 of the cake batter into the prepared pan and smooth it out evenly.
now, let's prepare the cookie dough. in a separate bowl, combine almond flour, oat flour, peanut butter, maple syrup, and chocolate chips. mix until it forms a cookie dough-like consistency.
roll the cookie dough mixture into small balls and place them evenly into the cake batter. then, cover the cookie dough with the rest of the cake batter.
bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. keep an eye on it, as baking times may vary.
once done, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
in a microwave-safe bowl, heat the vegan chocolate chips in 15 to 20-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted. alternatively, you can use a double boiler on the stovetop for this step.
