Cake Method:

 Line a 7inch x 11inch rectangle cake tin with parchment paper

Preheat the oven to 160 degrees oven/180 fan

(I use the paddle attachment on a stand mixer for this) In a large bowl, beat the plant-based spread with the sugar until soft

Add in the almond butter and apple sauce and keep mixing until fully combined

In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder

Add this dry mixture to the butter mixture and mix well to combine

Whip the aquafaba in a stand mixer until thick and frothy

Add the sugar and cream of tartar and continue to whip until the mixture looks like a meringue

Fold this into the batter

Pour into a baking tray, and bake for 35 mins

Strawberry and Almond Milk Ice Cream Method:

 In a pan, heat the almond milk, golden syrup and caster sugar until steaming

Allow cooling

Blend with the fresh strawberries until smooth

Pour into a container and freeze until solid

Cut this into small chunks and blitz until smooth and it looks aerated

Pour this into a container and freeze again for 1-2 hours

Serve with the almond cake and fresh strawberries

Enjoy!
