Alida’s Food is turning 4 years old and to celebrate, I’m bringing you a Decadent Red Wine Cake very tasty and decadent, as the occasion demands.
Nevertheless, it is a relatively healthy cake, since it contains olive oil, stevia, and cocoa powder, and it is also gluten-free since the chosen flour was gluten-free oatmeal.
I believe that it is possible to have a healthy and balanced diet while including some more delicious recipes in our diet.
It all depends on the quantities we ingest, the exercise we do, and our daily diet.
So, leave guilt aside and enjoy this wonderful cake! After all, good things are to be celebrated!
And in all this, it’s been 4 years and it doesn’t even seem true! Just yesterday I started this journey, with an incredible fear of exposing myself and showing my face.
Today, it has been 4 years and I can say that it has been amazing!
To everyone on that side, thank you so much! Without you, I would never have gotten here!
How do you make this Red Wine Cake?
Just add the liquid ingredients and whisk very well.
Then add the solids and incorporate everything, very carefully, because we want the cake to be fluffy and grow well.
Put it in a pan and bake it in the oven at 160º.
The decoration is up to you, but the blackberries and figs are beautiful and combine perfectly with the sweetness of the red wine.
For this recipe you’ll need:
- Stevia
- Eggs
- Olive oil
- Red Wine
- Cocoa powder
- Oat flour
- Baking soda
- Baking powder
- Figs and blackberries for decoration
What are the tricks to get this Red Wine Cake right?
- Beat the stevia well with the eggs, so that a homogeneous batter is formed. This process helps the cake to become fluffier.
- Olive oil intensifies the flavor of the cocoa.
- Red wine is, of course, the king of this cake. But don’t worry, it doesn’t taste like alcohol.
- Involve the dry ingredients well, without beating too much, so that the cake is fluffy and grows in the oven (instead of collapsing, which sometimes happens).
