This cake is warming, grounding and perfect in the afternoon with a cup of Dosha Balancing Vata Tea. I adapted it from a recipe by Rose Bakery, tweaking bits and pieces to make it a little healthier. It’s very dense and packs a spicy punch, and is delicious served warm fresh from the oven although due to its moisture it holds well for a few days.
