How to Make Super Moist Chocolate Spelt Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups spelt flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (Green & Black's Organic recommended), 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 cup buttermilk, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  5. Stir in 1 cup boiling water. The batter will be thin.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes.
  9. Invert cakes onto wire racks to cool completely.
  10. Once completely cool, frost with your favorite frosting.
