You’ll Need
- 2 cups whole-wheat flour
- ¾ cup cocoa powder, sifted, plus extra for dusting
- 1 tsp fine salt
- 1½ tsp baking soda
- 1 cup canola oil
- 1½ cups brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup coffee, hot or cold
- 2 cups beets, washed, ends trimmed and grated
Prep and Cook
- 1Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 10” bundt pan, dusting insides lightly with cocoa powder.
- 2In a medium-mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
- 3Using an electric or hand mixer, whisk together oil and sugar until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well. Add half of the flour mixture and coffee until well combined. Add the remaining flour mixture and beets, stirring after each addition until combined.
- 4Pour batter into the pan and bake for 45–50 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a plate or cake stand and allow it to rest for 1 hour.
- 5Dust the top of the cake with icing sugar, or frost with cream cheese icing.
