I make this dairy free. Substitute milk and butter for a regular cake. Also, if cherries aren't available, try raspberries or blueberries.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Whisk together the eggs and 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl until light yellow and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the cornmeal, flour and salt, smoothing out any lumps. Whisk in the oatmilk and almond extract.
- 2
Add the margarine to a 10- to 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. When the margarine has melted, swirl it around to coat the bottom of the skillet. Right before you are ready to pour the batter into the pan, give the batter another whisk to mix the cornmeal back up since it will settle.
- 3
Pour the batter into the pan and cook until the batter begins to set, about 5 minutes. Every few minutes, using a spatula, move some of the batter from the edges to the middle to help it cook. After it starts to firm a bit, distribute the cherries evenly over the surface of the cake.
- 4
Bake over medium-high heat on the stovetop to firm up for about 5 minutes, then finish it in a 375-degree oven for 30 minutes.
- 5
Remove the cake and immediately sprinkle it with the remaining teaspoon of granulated sugar. Allow to cool slightly before loosening and sliding it onto a plate. Dust with confectioners' sugar, slice, and serve.

I changed it a little and made cupcakes instead of 1 large cake. The large version serves 12, as watching the weight & handing out cup cakes are far easier for me and only take 10-12 minutes in the oven per batch. These cakes are fluffy light & amazing!!!

Dairy Free Double Chocolate Cake with Dairy Free Peanut Butter Icing Dairy Free Double Chocolate Cake with Dairy Free Peanut Butter Icing
I volunteered to bake a cake to celebrate an anniversary and one of the honorees could not eat dairy. I searched for recipes that would be mindful of the requirement, yet tasty to all of the guests at the event. This was the end result, and I actually think it was better than other chocolate cakes I’ve made int past. Serious bakers will recognize it as basically a “Depression” or “Wacky” cake, which I modified to my own taste. The end result was a very moist and tasty cake!

Egg & Dairy-Free Decorated Cake Egg & Dairy-Free Decorated Cake
I made this cake for my daughter's birthday.The sponge is a variation of Patricio Garcia de Paredes' recipe that I re-arranged for a smaller amount.You only need to mix ingredients together for the sponge, so it's simple. Soy milk whipped cream is especially hard to whip when you're trying to get it to form stiff peaks. Chilling it beforehand or adding a little lemon juice makes it a bit easier. Recipe by Meifan -
Cranberry Cake with hot 'butter cream' sauce - Gluten/Dairy Free Cranberry Cake with hot 'butter cream' sauce - Gluten/Dairy Free
My Grandma used to make a delicious cranberry Cake with hot butter cream sauce. This gluten and dairy free version is delicious!*NoteThis recipe does mention butter as an ingredient, however there are several dairy free substitutes that can work well too. Coconut oil, coconut butter (meat of the coconut ground into a paste), applesauce, & margarine can each still render a delicious cake, though may change the texture some.
