chocolate walnut cake

 

In this recipe, I have replaced eggs with chickpea brine. Chickpea brine is nothing but aquafaba which generally refers to the liquid in a can of chickpeas, and is a revolutionary new vegan egg replacer.  For this chocolate walnut cake, you don’t even need to beat the liquid. Just add it straight.

I have used Greek yogurt that makes cakes really moist.  I love that texture. This chocolate walnut cake is rich, decadent, moist and staunchly chocolaty. You can replace Greek yogurt either with vegan yogurt or with apple sauce to make it.

Also used pitted dates and honey as sweetener in this recipe. You can go with any sweetener which you prefer.
To make it more in nutritious I have used pumpkin and sunflower seed mix and walnuts.

Let’s come to the recipe.

Course: Dessert Cuisine: International Prep Time: 10m Cook Time: 30m Total Time: 40m Servings: 1 Loaf Author: Rachna’s Kitchen – ½ cup greek yogurt or apple sauce – ¼ cup + 2 tablespoon honey – 5 tablespoon chickpeas brine – 2 teaspoon vanilla essence – 1 cup oats grounded – 1 cup pitted dates – 3 scoop protein powder – 1 tablespoon cocoa powder – ¼ cup desiccated coconut – 1 teaspoon baking powder – ½ teaspoon lemon juice – ¼ teaspoon salt – 8 – 10 pieces chocolate chunks – 2 tablespoon Pumpkin seeds – 3 tablespoon roughly chopped walnuts 1) Preheat the oven to 180℃. 2) Grease a loaf tin lightly with olive oil spray or you can also line the tin with butter paper. 3) Place pitted dates to mixer grinder and add water. 4) I have added water to reduce the calories in recipe but if you wish you can replace water with milk. 5) Grind it to thick paste consistency. Take it out in a bowl. 6) In a separate bowl add wet ingredients chick pea brine, yogurt, honey and vanilla essence. Whisk it to mix together. 7) Add the date mixture. Mix again. 8) In a separate bowl sieve dry ingredients together protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. 9) Then add grounded oats, desiccated coconut, chopped walnuts and seed mix. 10) Now in the wet mixture add dry mixture in and mix it slowly. Consistency should be lumpy and thick. 11) Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf tin. Place chocolate chunks. Now cover the chocolate chunks by pouring the rest of batter. Even the top. 12) Bake it at 200 celsius for 5 minutes and then bake it for 25 minutes at 75 degree celsius until risen, and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. 13) Remove and cool on a wire rack before turning out. 14) Cut the delicious protein cake into slices with ice cream or a cup of tea. serving_size 136 calories 125 carbohydrates 16.8 protein 8.8 fat 3.2 cholesterol 19 sodium 81 potassium 278   chocolate walnut cake

    This looks great! I am excited to make it, but will this recipe work if I do use eggs? If so, do you know how many eggs I could use? 2 eggs?

      Hi Catie,
      You can use eggs in this recipe which would increase the protein content too. To replace eggs I have used chickpea brine (aquafaba) so skip that and use 2 eggs. See how the cake comes out. Wish you luck.
      Thanks

          Hello Dia,
          Sorry for late reply. Yes you can use flax seeds by soaking 2 tablespoon of flax seeds in half a cup of water. Also you can substitute brine with apple sauce, yogurt , banana etc. I have used these fruits in baking to replace eggs successfully.
