Chocolate Peppermint Loaf! This cake is the PERFECT hostess gift for the holidays. Perfectly moist, lightly peppermint chocolate cake with a peppermint glaze. Vegan and dairy-free.
First, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
Then, add the oil, peppermint, vanilla, vinegar and oat beverage together and mix until smooth.
Next, add the wet to the dry and stir together until well combined, then pour into the prepared pan and bake for 50-52 minutes or until a toothpick just comes out clean. Don't overbake! Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Then, whisk together the powdered sugar and salt together with the cocoa powder in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the oat beverage and whisk until very smooth and creamy, adding 1 teaspoon more oat beverage as needed.
Finally, remove the cooked loaf from the pan and drizzle the glaze over and let harden.
To gift, wrap in parchment paper and tie with twine!
