Indulge in this delightful gluten-free vegan lemon curd layer cake, featuring layers of moist lemon-flavored cake filled with tangy vegan lemon curd and frosted with a luscious lemon buttercream. Perfect for special occasions or anytime you crave a refreshing citrusy treat!
Ingredients: 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 tsp baking powder. 1/2 tsp baking soda. 1/2 tsp salt. 1 cup unsweetened almond milk. 1/2 cup vegetable oil. 1/4 cup lemon juice. Zest of 2 lemons. 1 tsp vanilla extract. 1 batch vegan lemon curd see separate recipe. 1 batch vegan lemon buttercream frosting see separate recipe.
Instructions: Set the oven to 350F 175C and heat it up. Butter and flour two 8-inch round cake pans. Take a big bowl and add the sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Use a whisk to mix them all together. Mix the dry ingredients together with the almond milk, vegetable oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Stir until everything is just mixed, being careful not to mix it too much. Spread the batter out evenly in the cake pans that have been prepared. Use a spatula to make the tops smooth. In a hot oven, bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean. After taking the cakes out of the oven, let them cool for 10 minutes in the pans before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way through. When the cakes are cool enough to touch, put one layer on a cake stand or serving plate. Cover the top with a thick layer of vegan lemon curd. Place the second cake layer on top of the lemon curd layer with care. Use vegan lemon buttercream frosting to cover the cake's top and sides. If you want, you can decorate the cake with more lemon zest or slices. Spread the vegan lemon curd layer cake out on a plate and cut it into pieces. Have fun!
