Easter Fairy Cakes

 

In a follow-up to the Free From Pancakes collaboration last month, I am joining in with the Free From Gang again this month. This time the theme is Free from Baking with Kids for Easter. This was lovely, I actually found I let the kids do most of the work. I was left with the cleanup though, I must work on that one! Here’s our Easter Fairy Cakes which are dairy free and gluten-free if you use Gluten Free Flour.

Easter Fairy Cakes

Ingredients:

140g coconut oil, melted

110g caster sugar

100g self-raising flour (Use Free From Fairy Gluten Free Self Raising Flour if you need it to be gluten free)

25g cocoa

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 eggs

100g dairy free chocolate

For Icing:

70g margarine

140g icing sugar

1 tbsp water

Steps:

1. Preheat the oven to 190C / 375F / Gas5 (180C fan oven). Line a bun tray with paper or silicon cases.

2. Put all the ingredients into a bowl and mix until smooth. We used a hand blender for this. Children can help with all of this, my 8 year old did most of this himself, with brief breaks where I let the 5 year old do some.

3. Using two forks, put the mixture into the bun cases, filling each to about 2/3.

4. Bake for 18-20 minutes until lightly golden. You should yield 12-15 buns.

5. Place on a wire tray to cool.

6. Break the chocolate into pieces and melt over a saucepan of boiling water. Pour into chocolate egg mould and leave to set in the fridge or freezer.

 

 

To Make Icing:

  1. Beat the margarine until soft. Add half of the icing sugar and beat until smooth.
  2. Add the rest of the icing sugar and half the water and beat the mixture until creamy and smooth.
  3. Add more water if necessary.*
  4. Swirl icing over top of buns, or if you make runny icing spoon it. Place a chocolate egg on top of each.
  5. Allow to set and enjoy!

Chocolate Easter Fairy Cakes

*As you can see from the photos we put in too much water and it turned out more like glace icing. This worked fine anyway but I would have liked to have lovely icing swirls on the buns and place the chocolate eggs on top.

  6. dairyfreekids Reply

    Thanks Emma! Had to get rid of excess icing or that is what would’ve happened here! :)

  7. Le Coin de Mel Reply

    They look great! It’s so nice to see your little ones getting involved. Look at those concentrated little faces :)

  8. Cherished By Me Reply

    You can’t beat getting brownie points when handing over a bowl of icing to the children and saying there you go can you! They love it, I think fairy cakes are my absolute favourite cakes and they always have to have a generous layer of icing on them too so yours will go down a treat! :)

    • Laura Reply

      Yeah, it’s all about the icing :-)

Drop me a line..
