protein-rich Christmas log
Ingredients
For the sponge cake:
- 80 g einkorn flour
- 70 g agave syrup
- 120 g plant-based milk (preferably soy for better structure)
- 30 g neutral oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- A pinch of salt
For the filling:
- 120 g dark chocolate (at least 70%)
- 180 ml soy cream
- 60 g crushed hazelnuts
- 2 scoops Pulse chocolate protein powder
For the glaze:
- 30 g dark chocolate
- 50 ml soy cream
Recipe
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Mix the plant-based milk, agave syrup, oil, and apple cider vinegar. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, then mix well until you get a smooth batter.
- Pour the batter onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and spread it evenly. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
- Melt the dark chocolate with the soy cream in a saucepan over low heat until smooth. Remove from heat and fold in the crushed hazelnuts and Pulse chocolate protein powder. Stir until the filling is homogeneous.
- Once the sponge cake is baked and slightly cooled, spread the chocolate-hazelnut-protein filling over the entire surface. Gently roll the sponge to form a log. Let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Melt the dark chocolate with the soy cream in a small saucepan. Let it cool slightly before coating the log with this glaze.
- Place the log in the refrigerator to let the glaze set, then serve!
