Pumpkin Spice Cake (Dairy- and Egg-Free)

Submitted by cathianne

"This is based on the ubiquitous "Vegan Chocolate Cake." I've made some alterations so that a) it's not quite as sweet and b) it is more like a spice cake consistency."

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 12
• Yields: 1 cake
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 1 3⁄4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3⁄4 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1⁄2 teaspoon clove
• 1⁄2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1⁄3 cup corn oil (or any vegetable oil)
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1⁄2 cup canned pumpkin puree
• 3⁄4 cup rice milk

directions

1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl in the order listed up to the pumpkin puree. Add the rice milk, stirring slowly. Add more or less depending on desired consistency.
2. Pour batter into a greased 8 X 8 baking pan. The batter may be thick and you may need to gently shimmy the pan in order to have it spread out entirely.
3. Bake in an oven pre-heated to 350F degrees for 30 minutes. You may want to check it at 25 minutes if you a) used a different sized pan or b) made the batter slightly thinner.

I made this a few weeks back for my brother, who likes pumpkin a lot. He seemed to like it, but it didn't really do anything for me. It doesn't really have a lot of flavour (though the spices are evident), and I just don't get anything out of it.
