Vegan Lemon Genoise Cake Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Put flour, baking powder, sugar, and zest into a bowl and mix well before adding the oil, juice and the water.
• Mix thoroughly to make sure all is combined well.
• Pour into a lined cake tin and bake for 30 minutes until fully cooked at around 200 Celcius.
• When the cake is cool it's definitely worth making a glaze for the top, this is done by sieving the icing sugar and stirring in lemon juice until the consistency is wet enough to pour over the cake.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Oil a 1lb loaf tin and line it with baking parchment. Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder and lemon zest in a bowl. Add the oil, lemon juice and 170ml cold water, then mix until smooth.
• Pour the mixture into the tin. Bake for 30 mins or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then remove and transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool fully.
• For the icing, sieve the icing sugar into a bowl. Mix in just enough lemon juice to make an icing thick enough to pour over the loaf (if you make the icing too thin, it will just run off the cake).

Steps:

• For the cake:.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Grease and flour two 9" round pans.
• Mix the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
• Add the butter, water, and lemon juice and beat on medium for one minute.
• Add the remaining ingredients and beat on medium for one minute more.
• Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cakes comes out clean.
• Let the cakes cool thoroughly before filling and frosting.
• For the frosting:.
• Combine the mascarpone cheese, lemon juice, and powdered sugar in a bowl and beat on high until thoroughly combined and medium peaks form.
• Use it to fill and frost the cake.
