Vegan Hummingbird Cake
While testing our what dessert to serve for my Vegan New Year Yummies Event, I came across this recipe and decided to veganize it.
This cake usually has a thick icing, but I don’t like icing. I always use glaze on my cakes.
It’s a very moist cake and a bit dense. And boy does it deliver on making your heart hum :).
Here’s My Recipe:
