½ cup (125 mL) + ½ tsp (2.5 ml) canola oil, divided
1 cup (250 mL) pureed prunes (2 baby food pouches)
1 large egg
½ cup (125 mL) maple syrup
2 tsp (10 mL) vanilla extract
3/4 cup (175 mL) all-purpose flour
1 cup (250 mL) ground almonds
½ cup (125 mL) cocoa powder
1 Tbsp (15 mL) baking powder
salt
1 cup (250 mL) raspberries
2 tsp (10 mL) icing sugar
Preheat oven to 325°F.
Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with ½ teaspoon (2.5 mL) of canola oil or cooking spray.
Combine the pureed prunes, egg, maple syrup, vanilla and remaining oil in a medium bowl and set aside.
Combine flour, ground almonds, cocoa powder and baking powder in a large bowl; stir to combine.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Try not to overmix; just until the flour is coated in wet mixture and there are no streaks remaining.
Bake for 22-25 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean from the center of the cake (a little crumb on the toothpick is ok). Run a small knife around the edge to loosen and let cool completely.
Once cooled, put a plate overtop of the pan and invert so that the cake falls out onto the plate. Top the cake with raspberries and dust with icing sugar.
