**Gluten Dairy Free Cake**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 ½ cups gluten-free flour blend
– 1 cup coconut sugar
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
– ½ cup coconut oil, melted
– 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
– Fresh berries, for garnish (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour blend, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, melted coconut oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
4. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix to keep the cake light and fluffy.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
6. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Decorate the cake with fresh berries or your favorite dairy-free frosting, if desired, before serving.
