Full ingredients: 1/2 cup aquafaba, 1 cup flour 1/2 cup cocoa, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1tsp baking soda, 1/2 coconut oil, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 tsp salt, powdered sugar
Wow, I just tried this, I was hoping it would be good, I wasn't sure what to expect out of it though. This was the first time I ever used aquafaba in anything whatsoever, I'm not vegan. I just found out recently that you can use the bean water as an egg substitute , I had made some pinto beans a few days ago and decided to try your recipe. There is literally NO bean flavor in the cake, it turned out fantastically, I have a house full of picky eaters, and EVERYONE loves it! Thank you so much for the thorough instructions and the recipe. I don't like wasting food, and it makes me really happy to not only be able to eat the beans, but also be able to use a by product that can make all sorts of different things. Many blessings to your family.🙏
@@teekoamigo Right? This is a good recipe. I would like to add though, that this cake is BEST eaten while it's still warm. Once it cools down, the flavor of the cake dulls. It won't be bad once it cools down, but not as good as when it was warm. It is definitely still worth making, just eat it fast.👍
@@HoneyBunny. nice tip....for some reason makes me want to add coconut to enhance flavor....i know this may sound crazy, but maybe even just a tiny bit of lemon to brighten the flavor because it does that to chickpeas (and as a bartender i remember some weird drink with lemon and other mixers that ended up tasting like german chocolate cake)
@@teekoamigo That sounds interesting. What I noticed, was when I made the cake, when it was cool enough to eat, but still warm the taste was amazing. However when the cake cooled, the chocolate flavor dulled, and that was when there was a slight beany aftertaste. Coconut might be able to mask it if you eat it when it cools.. the lemon with other mixtures might help too. Honestly I wonder if you just warm the cake back up on a cast iron skillet, and add more icing once removed if that would take care of the the bean flavor problem..🤔👍
@@HoneyBunny. i plan on freezing in individual portions and microwaving for a few secs after they thaw (they thaw quickly) in the plastic wrap so it stays soft and *moist* and the lemon juice just enough to brighten the flavor not enough to taste lemon although i'd probably cross reference some chocolate/ chickpea / lemon recipes to test my theory and get an idea on how much or if it's even a thing
Thank you. I cooked it today. Its consistency is good, I use metric measurement unit and took 250 ml as 1 cup. But the amounts salt and baking soda didn't match I guess. The cake feels both overly sweet and overly salty at the same time. Teaspoon/tablespoon measurements didn't match I think. Going to buy professional teaspoon/tablespoon measure and try it one more time because this is the easiest aquafaba chocolate cake recipe I found on both UA-cam and the web browser. All in all it was my first time cooking a vegan cake and it is miraculous how cake without egg and dairy taste so fine and "exactly like cake." I was shouting and dancing home haha that is so wonderful. Blessings.
Thanks for watching! You could substitute with another flour. But each gluten-free flour blend reacts slightly differently with ingredients, and cakes especially are too delicate to handle a 1 to 1 substitution. So you may have to experiment with amounts. 😁

around 1/2 cup.
