- 10 ml (2 tsp) baking powder
- 50 g (1/4 cup) light olive oil
- 160 g (1/2 cup) maple syrup
- 3 medium eggs (135 g) (separated)
- 75 g (1/3 cup) lemon juice
- 50 g (1/8 cup + 1 tbsp) plant-based milk substitute
- 5 ml (1 tsp) vanilla
- 15 ml (1 tbsp) lemon zest
- 2,5 ml (1/2 tsp) cream of tartar
- 150 g (1 cup) blueberries, fresh or frozen
PREPARATION
- Preheat the oven to 165 °C (325 °F).
- In a bowl, mix together the flour and baking powder. Make a well in the center and add the oil, maple syrup, egg yolks, lemon juice, plant-based milk substitute, vanilla and lemon zest. Beat at the maximum speed of an electric mixer or with a stand mixer equipped with a flat beater, at medium speed, about five minutes.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg whites. Start beating gently, add the cream of tartar, then beat on high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Fold the egg whites into the flour mixture, gently stirring the dough with a spatula. Use the spatula to then fold in the blueberries.
- Pour the mixture into an ungreased tube pan and bake on the center rack of the oven, 65 to 70 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
- Invert the cake and balance it on a glass. Leave to rest for one hour. To unmold, pass the blade of a knife between the cake and the mold and then place on a serving plate.
