One-Bowl Lemon Cake in a Rose Pan – Vegan version

A simple lemon and unsweetened soy yogurt batter, baked in a rose-shaped pan and turned into a cake that looks like it came from a pastry shop. The powdered sugar gathers in the folds and highlights the petals. Vegan version: Flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water per egg), Margarine and Unsweetened soy yogurt.

👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) and grease rose pan with the soft butter using a brush, into every fold, and flour it with the flour, tapping out the excess.
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    In a bowl, mix the sugar with the lemon zest and rub with your fingers for about a minute, until the sugar is moist and fragrant.

  3. 3
    Whisk the flax eggs and sugar until smooth.
    Whisk
  4. 4
    Add the oil, unsweetened soy yogurt, lemon juice and vanilla extract and mix.
  5. 5
    Sift the flour and baking powder, combine with the salt, add to the wet mixture and Fold gently, just until no dry flour remains.
    ⚙ FoldingSilicone spatula
    💡Fold in the flour only until there are no pockets of dry flour: overmixing develops gluten, and the cake comes out dense.
    💡Fold with a spatula, in broad strokes from the bottom up, and stop when there's no dry flour: vigorous mixing of a batter with flour develops gluten.
  6. 6
    Pour into the pan and tap it twice on the counter so the batter fills all the folds.

    Bake 40–45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the thickest part comes out clean.

    💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
  8. 8
    Cool 10 minutes in the pan and unmold, then sprinkle the powdered sugar on top.
