Total time
Ingredients
- For the cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup non-dairy milk
- ½ cup canola oil
- 1 tablespoon vinegar (mild vinegars like white or apple cider work best)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups of fresh berries
- For the pecan topping:
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup roughly chopped pecans
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
Instructions
- Start with the pecan topping. Combine flour, sugar, spices and pecans in a bowl. Add canola oil and stir up with a fork until it gets all crumby-like.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Now for the dry ingredients. Whisk together the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine your wet ingredients: non-dairy milk, canola oil, vinegar and vanilla.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry and watch the magic happen. Stir until a batter is formed, being careful not to overmix. Then fold in your fresh berries.
- Line a pan with parchment paper or oil it up. Pour the batter into the pan, then spread it out with a spatula so it’s evenly distributed. Sprinkle the pecan mixture on top, spreading it evenly across the cake.
- Bake for 40 minutes uncovered. Then cover it with tinfoil and bake for ten more minutes.
- Let it cool a bit before serving.
