Method
Step 1 of 6
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Add 125g of softened butter, brown sugar and 1 tbs vanilla to a mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to cream the butter and sugar for 5 minutes until light and airy. Pour in the plant-based milk, molasses, vinegar and mashed bananas into the bowl, mix for 2 minutes until combined.
Step 2 of 6
Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and spices into a separate bowl, stir to combine before folding the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula.
Step 3 of 6
Grease 2 X 15 inch cake pans with 1 tbs of butter in each pan. Divide the batter into the pans, leveling it out using a spatula.
Step 4 of 6
Bake for 40 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the centre of the cake. Let the cakes cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 5 of 6
Place the remainder of the butter, vanilla and icing sugar into a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to whip the frosting together. Start at low speed until the powdered sugar has mixed in before increasing the speed. As the frosting thickened add the coconut milk to help thin out the frosting slightly.
Step 6 of 6
To assemble the cake, place one round onto a cake dish. Spread 1/4 of the frosting adding the other cake on top. Frost the top and sides of the cake using an offset spatula before presenting to your guests.
