Directions Whole Wheat Chocolate-Coffee Cake
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
Whisk whole wheat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, cardamom, and salt together in a medium bowl.
Whisk brewed coffee and espresso powder together in a large bowl. Add Greek yogurt, applesauce, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract, whish until thoroughly combined and no lumps remain. Stir in 1/2 of the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Repeat with remaining dry ingredients. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts. Pour batter into the prepared pan and place the pan onto a baking sheet.
Place both pans in the preheated oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, 50 to 60 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Gently run a table knife around the edges of the pan to loosen. Remove the sides of the pan and allow cake to cool completely, 15 to 30 minutes more.
Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
