Easy beetroot chocolate cake


  • In a food processor, blitz one large cooked, peeled beetroot: 175 - 200 grams
  • Add and mix in 3 eggs and 190ml sunflower oil
  • Fold in 200 grams self raising flour, 175 grams sugar, 75 grams cocoa - or more if wished.
  • Spoon into an eight inch square tin: the mixture is not too sloppy, more like stiff meringue.  
  • Bake at 190 degrees for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Dust with icing sugar and serve with creme fraiche or cream; or ice with chocolate icing or ganache.
