Total time:
- 1 Medium Beet – Cooked and peeled
- 1 Tbsp Yogurt
- 4 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
- 1 ½ Cups Spelt Flour
- ½ Cup White Sugar
- ¼ Cup Brown Sugar
- ⅓ Cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- ½ tsp Baking Powder
- ½ tsp Baking Soda
- 2 Eggs
- ¼ Cup Milk
- 130gr Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- ½ Cup Heavy Cream
- Preheat oven to 375F (180C)
- Prepare loaf pan covered with parchment paper
- Place the beet, the yogurt and the oil in a food processor and grind until you get a nice smooth paste.
- Place the rest of the ingredients in a mixing bowl, add the beet mix in and mix well until fully combined.
- Pour the mix into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until you test with a toothpick and it comes out clean (with no wet mix on it).
- Starts preparing the ganache halfway through the baking process
- Place the chocolate chips and the heavy cream in a small saucepan and heat over medium-low temperature while stirring consistently
- Remove from heat and set aside when you get a smooth cream like chocolate mix
- Pour the ganache on the cake when it’s ready
- The longer you let the ganache cool the less liquid it will be (which can allow you to spread it on the cake as oppose to pouring it on it)
