Strawberry Cake Ingredients

  • 1 cup homemade strawberry puree
  • ¼ cup melted butter regular or vegan
  • 1 cup milk regular or plant-based
  • 1 cup cane sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cup regular or gluten free all purpose flour If gluten-free, I recommend King Arthur Measure for Measure gluten-free flour. Please don't substitute any other flour such as almond flour, baking flour, etc.
  • strawberries for topping

Vegan Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 2 oz cream cheese regular or vegan
  • 2 tablespoon softened butter regular or vegan
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

Strawberry Puree Instructions

  • Bring a small saucepan to medium heat. Add the strawberries and cook, stirring, until tender (about 2-3 minutes). Use an immersion blender or regular blender to blend into a puree. You should have about ¾-1 cup of puree. Allow it to cool before using.

Strawberry Snack Cake Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a square or rectangular metal baking pan with baking spray or line it with parchment paper.
  • Mix the strawberry puree, melted butter, milk, sugar, baking soda, baking power, and vanilla together. Then, add the flour and mix until a batter forms. Pour the batter into the pan.
  • Bake the strawberry cake for about 25-30 minutes or until it has completely risen and is golden on top.

Making The Cream Cheese Frosting

  • While the strawberry cake bakes, mix the softened butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar to make the cream cheese frosting. Allow the cake to cool before frosting ... or you can do what I did and ice it while it's still warm so that the icing melts over the strawberry cake. Top with more berries and serve warm or cooled.
