How to cook deliciously - Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 10-inch fluted tube pan using 3 tablespoons of gluten-free flour. In a large bowl, whisk the remaining 2 cups of flour with the sugar, baking cocoa, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, baking powder, baking soda, salt, instant espresso powder and xanthan gum. Editor's Tip: When baking cakes, you'll almost always mix dry ingredients separately to ensure every ingredient (even the tiny amounts of baking soda and salt) is evenly distributed.

2. Stage

In another bowl, combine the water, almond milk, oil and vanilla until well blended.

3. Stage

Gradually beat the flour mixture into the milk mixture.

4. Stage

Gently pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes.

5. Stage

Cool the cake in the pan for 15 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.
