Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup gluten-free flour blend
  • 1 cup granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk alternative (such as almond milk or oat milk)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, gluten-free flour, and sugar thoroughly. Gradually stir in the milk alternative until a smooth batter forms with no lumps.
  2. Bake the cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and bake for approximately 30–35 minutes, or until the cake surface is set but the inside remains gooey and pudding-like. Use a toothpick to check; it should come out moist with some batter clinging.

Notes

  • Ensure your gluten-free flour blend contains xanthan gum or add 1/2 teaspoon for better texture.
  • Milk alternatives like almond, soy, or oat milk work best to keep the cake dairy-free.
  • Do not overbake; the center should remain slightly gooey for the perfect pudding texture.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of dairy-free ice cream or fresh berries for a delightful treat.
