White chocolate & beetroot cake

Another interesting beetroot cake recipe that I came across…..

I presume it will be pink when baked!

170g (6oz) plain flour
30g (1oz) cocoa powder
1⁄2 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
170g (6oz) caster sugar
230ml corn oil
1 tsp vanilla essence
3 eggs, beaten
9 tbsps cooked beetroot (pureed) Handful of white chocolate (broken into chunks)

Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt, then mix in the sugar. Add the corn oil, vanilla essence, eggs, beetroot and white chocolate and mix well.

Pour into a lightly greased and lined 18cm (7in) circular or square cake tray.

Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
