Ingredients

This delicious and healthy wholemeal flour chocolate cake is made with the following ingredients:

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups wholemeal flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup caster sugar, plus extra for sprinkling
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk

Instructions

To make this delicious wholemeal flour chocolate cake, preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and line an 8-inch round cake tin with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, wholemeal flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.

Gradually add the flour mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Pour the cake batter into the prepared tin and spread evenly. Sprinkle with a little extra caster sugar, if desired.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and allow to cool completely.

Serve the cake as is, or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream. Enjoy!
