So I found a vegan pound cake recipe and thought I would make some for my buddy. Then I though hey while I;m at it, why not throw in some pandan extract! It is pretty tasty although I messed up while I was making it because I was skimming the instructions too fast, so mine is a bit denser than it ought to be =/. I also actually used google and figured out weights for most measurements since I don't have cup measures here. It ended up kinda like the inside of a mooncake! Haha, I will probably try again sometime
Ingredients
1/2 cup vegan butter, softened (used Earth Balance) I used normal butter here
1 1/2 cups granulated or raw organic sugar White granulated in my case
6 ounces plain or low fat Silken firm tofu
2 cups unbleached flour
1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract I did pandan extract here with no almond
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 5 x 9" loaf pan or angel food cake/ pound cake circle pan.
2. Cream together butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. 3. Beat in tofu until well combined. Add 1 cup flour and, with mixer on low, mix just until incorporated. Aaaand this is where I threw all the flour in by accident and mixed it pretty well.
4. Add water and extracts and do the same.
5.End with remaining cup of flour and baking powder. Increase speed to medium and beat for 1-2 minutes. Oh well.
6. Spoon mixture into pan and lightly smooth the top. Place on the center rack of the oven and bake for 55 minutes. I filled 6 small tin things. Maybe I should have left them longer but my toothpick came out clean. These got 45 min.
