How to Prepare Fig Skillet Cake [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 6-inch cast iron skillet or cake pan well with coconut oil.
  2. Arrange about 3/4 of the figs on the bottom of the skillet, then sprinkle them with 1 teaspoon of coconut sugar.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and lemon zest. Add the almond milk and lemon juice and mix until a smooth and thick batter forms. It should resemble pancake batter.
  4. Pour the batter into the skillet over the figs. Then, arrange the remaining figs on the top of the batter. Bake the cake for 20-25 minutes until a tester comes out clean and the sides of the cake have pulled away from the pan. Store leftovers in an airtight container and eat within one day.
