1. Preparation:
Lightly grease a loaf pan (about 25 cm / 10 inches). Preheat the oven to 180 °C / 350 °F (top/bottom heat).
2. Mix dry ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine flour, ground hazelnuts, sugar, baking powder, vanilla sugar and salt.
3. Add wet ingredients:
Add the oil and plant-based milk to the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.
4. Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top and bake on the middle rack for about 60 minutes.
Check doneness with a wooden skewer.
5. Cool:
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
6. Chocolate glaze (optional):
Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in a bowl using a water bath or microwave. Stir until smooth, spread over the cake and let the glaze set.
