Vegan Bites: Hummingbird Cake

 

This beauty of a cake is gluten-free and full of fruits and pecans. Ours came out very moist and dense, but we had to guess the baking time as the original post omitted that bit.

We baked ours as one, deep cake, so it needed 1 hour and 45 minutes until a toothpick came out clean.
