**Ingredients**:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1/2 tsp ground ginger
– 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
– 1/4 cup olive oil or coconut oil
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1/4 cup molasses
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, for the batter
– 1 cup almond milk
– 1/2 cup coconut milk
– 1/2 cup sweetened condensed coconut milk
– 2 tsp instant coffee granules
– Whipped coconut cream or your favorite plant-based whipped topping
– Ground cinnamon for dusting
**Instructions**:
**Step 1:** Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish. You want to treat that pan like your most cherished asset. No one enjoys a cake that won’t come out clean!
**Step 2:** In a bowl, combine your dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. This is your foundation. Get it wrong, and you might as well throw in the towel.
**Step 3:** In another bowl, stir together the applesauce, oil, brown sugar, molasses, vanilla, and the cup of almond milk. Mix it up like your life depends on it. Combine it with your dry mix and stir until smooth. This, my friends, is your batter of champions.
**Step 4:** Pour your batter into the prepared dish and bake for 25-30 minutes. Use a toothpick to check its readiness. Like your hero status, it should come out clean.
**Step 5:** While it’s baking, combine the remaining almond milk, coconut milk, condensed coconut milk, and instant coffee in a saucepan. Heat on low until the coffee dissolves completely. This will be the liquid magic that makes your cake tres leches!
**Step 6:** Once the cake is out and cool enough to handle, poke holes all over it with a fork. That tres leches mixture? Pour half of it over the cake, letting it soak in deep. You’ll be thankful for those fork holes, as magic happens when the liquid soaks through the sponge.
**Step 7:** Once the cake has absorbed it all, top it with whipped coconut cream and a dusting of cinnamon. There you have it – a slice of heaven in each bite!
**Step 8:** Serve, indulge, and let the flavors transport you to the festive celebrations of your dreams. Share it, flaunt it, and let it go viral because this Gingerbread Latte Tres Leches Cake is more than just dessert; it’s pure festive euphoria!
