Whole Wheat Cake Recipe!!!



Happy Valentine’s Day!!! Or Single Awareness Day – depends on how you look at it :P


Today’s post is a fun cake recipe that is very easy to make, healthy and great for Valentine’s Day or any occasion if you don’t feel like eating cake that has creams and sugary decorations on it. This cake is also very healthy since it doesn’t contain butter – instead the butter is substituted with extra virgin olive oil.

This is a whole wheat cake recipe!!!!





This is what you will need: 

Note: we use the metric system here in Europe so everything is in grams, kilos, ml and the like…

500gr whole wheat flour
200ml extra virgin olive oil
450gr sugar
4-5 eggs
300ml milk
1 teaspoon of French Vanilla powder

How to make the cake:

Put the olive oil in a mixer and beat it while slowly adding the eggs one by one and the sugar. Continue beating the mix for about 3 minutes. Then, consecutively, add the whole wheat flour, the milk and the Vanilla capsule while stirring slowly. Place the mix in a kitchen oven dish which you have greased with oil and flour. Put the dish in the oven, which you need to preheat – leave it to bake for about an hour and check it from time to time. Let it sit for about 10 minutes and when it’s cooled down take it out of the dish and serve. Make sure it’s cooled enough to take out of the dish, otherwise it will get stuck in the dish and consequently ruined. 

p.s You can add chocolate sprinkles in the mix if you want to add a taste of chocolate to your cake.  

Enjoy your healthy cake (^_^)
