This post is also available in german/deutsch.I am very happy about your interest in our walnut cake with sunflower seeds. Also, I finally found the time to write it down. Because we have delivered most of our project for 2020. I can also look forward to something really great in August 2020. But more was not revealed at this point.This simple walnut cake contains valuable ingredients and healthy spices, like cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. I once made the cake vegan and once with eggs. Both results have convinced. So if you have no eggs at home, you can also use ground flax seeds or ground chia seeds.

We think the cake tastes better the next day.Walnut cake with sunflower seeds
80 g sunflower seeds
60 g of walnuts, roughly chopped
140 g vegan butter, liquid

Pinch of ground cloves
Pinch of ground nutmeg
sea-salt
2 tbsp of ground flaxseeds
100 ml oat milk
100 g of brown sugar

Soak the sunflower seeds and walnuts in water for 6 hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 180 ° C.
Mix flaxseed with 6 tablespoons of water and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Grease the box shape and cover with baking paper.
Strain the soaked nuts and seeds.

Now mix the flour, baking powder, spices, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
Mix the butter with the milk and add to the flour mixture together with the flax eggs and the soaked seeds/nuts.
Carefully mix everything with the spatula and then put the dough into the box.

Check with a wooden stick if the cake is ready. If there is still some dough, bake for a few minutes more.
