Ingredients
For the base:
250g spelt flour
1 sweet potato (310-330g)
80g sugar
1 baking soda (15g)
200g couverture
150 ml plantbased milk
1 Orange
A handful of pecans
2 tbsp baked cocoa
50 ml sunflower oil
For the cream:
1 sweet potato (310-330g)
1 Orange
4 tbsp agave syrup
1 tsp cinnamon
3 tsp soy yogurt
For decoration:
3 oranges
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
In a larger bowl, mix the flour with the baking powder, bake cocoa and sugar. Coarsely dice the sweet potato, peel the orange.
Step 2
Melt the couverture in a smaller saucepan with the plantbased milk. Crush the sweet potato with the pecans in a food processor, add orange, oil and the melted chocolate, mix again in the food processor. Add the finished mixture to the flour mixture and mix well. Use a wooden spoon or a hand mixer for this.
Step 3
In the meantime, preheat the oven to 200°C.
Step 4
Transfer the finished mixture to a 20 cm round baking pan and bake for 45 minutes. Allow to cool down and then halve horizontally once. Straighten the cake at the top with a knife if it is not quite straight. Crumble the leftovers and put them on the side. Place one part of the ground on a cake plate.
Step 5
For the cream, peel the sweet potato, wash it, cut into thicker slices and cook for 15 minutes. Meanwhile peel an orange.
Step 6
Puree the cooked sweet potato together with the remaining ingredients for the cream in a food processor.
Step 7
Spread half of the cream on the bottom of the cake. Peel three oranges, cut into slices with a sharp knife and spread half of the orange slices on the cream-coated cake base. Then put on the second base and spread the remaining cream on top. Spread the previously set aside crumbs in the middle. Decorate with remaining orange slices.
Step 8
Refrigerate the cake for 2 hours.
