Hi Everyone. πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί Happy Australia Day. Aussie Aussie Aussie Oii Oii Oii πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί. Lamingtons are australian and its Australia day so i though i would share a lamington recipe with you.

Ingredients To Make The Sponge

6 eggs separated
3/4 cup coconut sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp almond milk
1/2 cup almond meal
1/2 cup wholemeal self raising flour
1/2 tsp baking powder

Ingredients To Make The Chocolate Dipping Sauce And Coconut

2/3 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup cacao
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 cup desiccated coconut

Preheat oven to 170Β° and line a 20x20cm cake tin

If you have a bench top mixer use this, otherwise use an electric beater.

Whisk egg whites until soft peaks form

Slowly add the coconut sugar, continue whisking until mixture is glossy

Add egg yolks 1 at a time then add the vanilla and milk

Gently fold in the dry ingredients until well mixed

Pour into prepared tin and bake for 25 minutes, or until top is golden and firm to touch and skewer comes out clean

Leave to cool

Carefully cut the sponge in half and spread bottom half with the jam

Reassemble and then cut the sponge into 16 lamington-sized pieces

Combine coconut oil, cacao and maple syrup and mix until smooth

You may choose to add extra maple syrup depending on how sweet you want it

Dip each piece of lamington into the chocolate sauce, and then dip and roll in the desiccated coconut. Leave to dry on a wire rack until set.

Am not an Aussie but your lamingtons look so squishy and tasty.

Do people there usually have lamingtons to celebrate the holiday? Like Irish eat green things to celebrate st Patrick’s day.

Enjoy your holiday.
