Step 1:
Pre-heat oven to 180°C and line a 15cm round baking tin with baking paper.
Step 2:
Grate the zucchinis with the skin on.
Step 3:
Add the grated zucchini to a colander and place a heavy bowl on top to weigh them down. This will help remove any excess water from the zucchini.
Step 4:
In a large bowl, sift the spelt flour, carob powder, vanilla and baking powder together before stirring in the zucchini. This will help ensure it doesn’t clump together when the cake is baking.
Step 5:
Combine the vinegar, eggs, milk, oil and dates in a blender for about 30 seconds, or until there are no chunks of dates.
Step 6:
Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
Step 7:
Pour the batter into the lined tin and bake for 45 minutes, or until the cake has risen and a toothpick comes out dry.
Step 8:
Allow the cake to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9:
Dress the cake with a generous spoonful of vanilla yoghurt and sprinkle with berries.
