Pound cake is also great because it is so versatile. Add some blueberries and you have a simple breakfast bread; top it with an orange glaze and you have a light summer dessert; spread a slice with your favorite jam for a perfect tea snack; the possibilities are endless!
Vegan Pound Cake
Adapted from “A Vegan for Dinner”
1/2 cup non dairy butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
6 ounces of silken tofu, blended until smooth
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
Heat the oven to 350º F. Grease a 5” x 9” pan. In the bowl of a mixer, beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Add the sugar, and beat until fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the silken tofu, and mix until combined. Add 1 cup flour, and mix until just incorporated. Add the water and vanilla, and mix. Add the remaining cup of flour and the baking powder, and mix on medium for 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into the pan, and bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool before removing from the pan. Cut up into 1” cubes for fondue.
