📋 Ingredients

Here are the ingredients (amounts are in the recipe card below).

• Flour: All-purpose flour or cake flour. If you like gluten-free cake, you can substitute it with rice flour.
• Baking Powder: I use aluminum free baking powder.
• Oil: I usually use taihaku sesame oil (no smell and no color) for baking desserts but you can use other oil that doesn't have a strong smell or taste.
• Soy Milk: I use plain soy milk (no flavor and no sugar). You can substitute it with other milk such as almond milk or oats milk.
• Maple Syrup: I use Canadian maple syrup.
• Dried fig: I use Turkish figs.

🔪Instructions

Well, now it's time to cook! Let me walk you through how to make it step by step. You can also watch this video.

First of all, preheat an oven at 180C/356F.

1. Cut dried fig into small pieces.
2. Put wet ingredients (oil, maple syrup, soy milk) and mix.
3. Add dry ingredients (flour and baking powder) and stir gently.
4. Add dried fig and stir gently.
5. Pour the dough into a cake pan
6. Score the surface and bake for 35-40minutes at 180C/356F.

Take it out from the pan, place it on a cooling rack and let it cool for some time. Please wait until completely cooled down, then cut into pieces of your choice, and enjoy!

Storage

You can store it at room temperature for about 5 days. If the slice gets dry, warm it in the microwave for about 20 seconds, then it will get fluffy again.

For longer storage, wrap each slice of cake with plastic wrap before storing them in the freezer. The cakes will last around one month.
