Healthy Rice Flour Chocolate Cake

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 55 g honey (50-60g; use more if you prefer a sweeter cake)
• 2 tbsp rice oil
• salt (a pinch)
• 90 g rice flour
• 15 g cocoa powder (cacao powder)
• 5 g baking powder
• 4 tbsp milk

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

2. 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine the 2 eggs, 50-60g honey, 2 tablespoons of rice oil, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until well combined.

3. 3

   Add 90g rice flour, 15g cocoa powder, and 5g baking powder to the wet ingredients. Mix until the batter is smooth.

4. 4

   Stir in 4 tablespoons of milk to adjust the consistency of the batter.

5. 5

6. 6

   Once baked, immediately wrap the cake in plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container to prevent the rice flour from drying out.

Notes

Since this recipe uses rice flour, it can dry out quickly. If it becomes dry, sprinkle a tiny bit of water over a slice and microwave it for a few seconds to soften it. Leftovers can be frozen for a quick breakfast or snack.
