If you do anything with your strawberries this summer, please let it be this. This warm, cozy, and delicious gluten-free and dairy-free strawberry spoon cake is ready in 40 minutes from start to finish.
Preheat oven to 350. Start by making strawberry topping. Mash strawberries to release their juices & mix in brown sugar. Set aside.
Melt vegan butter and add to a medium bowl. Mix in apple sauce, maple syrup, & oat milk. Mix together. Then, add gf flour + baking powder and mix again. You can add a bit more milk if the batter feels chalky or dry.
Spoon batter into a baking dish. Spoon strawberry mixture over the cake batter.
Bake for 25-30 min or until a toothpick comes out clean. Scoop onto a plate with vanilla or pistachio ice cream and sprinkle fresh basil on top.
