        Super Simple Gluten Free Blueberry & Peach Cake (Vegan too!)

        Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

        Blueberries and Peaches, such an exquisite fruit combo you don't hear enough about! The sweet, smooth texture of the peaches combine so beautifully with fresh, juicy blueberries nested on top of a super moist cake.

        What's even better is that this blueberry and peach cake is soft, moist and relatively healthy.

        It contains, 1 of your 5 a day, plant based milk and yogurt. As well as, rap-seed oil and fructose sugar in controlled amounts.

        The key difference between caster sugar and fructose sugar is that, fructose sugar comes from the sugar from fruits. This makes it a slightly healthier alternative to sugar, however, it is still processed.

        Processed sugars is linked to type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, inflammation and heart disease. If eaten in large amounts. That is why it is important to have it in small controlled amounts, as I have done in this recipe.

        The same can be said for rapseed oil. Although it is an unsaturated fat and therefore a healthier alternative. If consumed in large amounts it can have some health risks. As I have delved open in detail in my recent post.

        Things to note about the recipe

        Like a lot of my gluten free cake recipes such as my Strawberry and Chocolate chip banana bread this recipe also includes Xanthan gum. This ingredient is quite vital in gluten free bakes to prevent then from being crumbly. As it acts as a stabiliser, in the same way gluten does in normal plain/self-raising flour.

        For this recipe I have also used tinned peaches 'in juice'. This is important to note when making your own, that you don't purchase peaches 'in syrup'. As this means your peaches have just been stored in sugar.

        So the nutritional benefits of the peach's in your cake, has gone out the window. As your peaches will no longer have the same benefits/nutrients. As it has now nearly all sugar from the syrup its absorbed.

        Instead opt for peaches stored in the juice of the peach or peel a fresh peach and slice them yourself!
