Ruby Chocolate Upside-Down Cake

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 20cm (8inch) round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

   Tip: Use a high-quality cake pan to ensure even baking.

2. 2

   In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon powder, and salt.

   Tip: Aerate the dry ingredients to ensure they are well combined.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, whisk together the almond milk, eggs, and melted butter.

   Tip: Make sure to break up any egg solids for a smooth batter.

4. 4

   Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.

   Tip: Avoid overmixing to preserve the cake's structure.

5. 5

   Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.

   Tip: Use a spatula to get rid of any air pockets.

6. 6

   Arrange the ruby chocolate chips in a circular pattern on top of the batter, leaving a 1cm border around the edges.

   Tip: This will create a beautiful and colorful design.

7. 7

   Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

   Tip: Avoid overbaking to prevent the cake from drying out.

8. 8

   Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

   Tip: Be patient, the cake will be worth the wait!
