Vegan Lemon Genoise Cake image

I made this cake for my friends wedding last summer. Many of the guests (non-vegans) at the wedding were worried how the cake would taste. Everyone loved it! The Bride found the recipe somewhere online and we played with it. I tripled this recipe to make this for the wedding ( two 10 inch round cakes and two 8 inch round cakes) You could use my Easy Buttercream Icing # 425083, to ice the cake, but we used my Macadamia Nut Butter Buttercream Icing #425225. To make either of these icings vegan, just leave out the meringue powder. To fill the middle of the layers we used my Vegan Lemon Curd #425233.

Time 50m

Yield 2 8 inch cakes, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups white flour
2 tablespoons white flour
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup margarine
2 tablespoons margarine
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup water
1 large lemon, zest of
3/4 cup soymilk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon lemon extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Prepare the pans by greasing with margarine and dusting with flour.
  • Mix the dry ingredients together with a whisk in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the margarine, water and lemon juice and beat with an stand mixer for a minute.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and beat one more minute.
  • Divide equally between the cake pans.
  • Bake until cakes test done. (8 inch pan about 40 - 50 minutes, 10 inch pan about 50-60 minutes).
  • Cool on racks for 10 minutes, then loosen cakes and remove from pans to finish cooling, otherwise it might crack and fall apart from being too warm.
  • To remove from pans, first, run a thin knife to loosen the edge of the cake layer from the pan. Then, place a wire rack over the top of it and with a hand on each side of the baking pan and rack, quickly invert. Gently shake or tap the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon handle to help remove the cake layer. Carefully peel off the liner and turn cake layer right-side-up to cool on a wire cake rack.
  • When completely cool cover one layer of cake with Vegan Lemon Curd #425233, and then cover with other layer of cake.
  • Cover cake with icing of your choice. May favourite is Macadamia Nut Butter Buttercream Icing #425225, but you could use Easy Buttercream Icing # 425083.

The cake didn't taste very lemony. I think I might have used too little lemon zest.

The cake turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have used too much flour.

I had trouble getting the cake to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.
