Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Decadent Chocolate Beet Cake.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and greasing three 8x4x2-inch bread pans to ensure your delicious creation slides out easily later.
Step 2
Next, grab your blender and toss in the drained beets along with their reserved liquid.
Step 3
Blend them together until you achieve a smooth, velvety puree that will add a beautiful color and moisture to your bread.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pureed beets with sugar, eggs, olive oil, and a splash of vanilla extract.
Step 5
Beat these ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well blended, creating a delightful base for your batter.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 7
This dry mixture will bring structure and flavor to your bread.
Step 8
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the beet mixture, stirring gently until everything is combined into a luscious batter.
Step 9
Now, it’s time to fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter for those delightful bursts of chocolate in every bite.
Step 10
Pour the rich, colorful batter into your prepared bread pans, filling them about three-quarters full to allow for some lovely rising.
Step 11
Place the pans in your preheated oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes.
Step 12
You’ll know your bread is ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, signaling that it’s perfectly baked.
Step 13
Enjoy the wonderful aroma wafting through your kitchen as you await your delicious creation!.
