Preparation Steps

Preheat oven to 340°F. Line three 9-inch cake tins with oil and baking paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, sift the flours, salt, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Using a whisk, stir until combined.
Add the eggs, coconut oil, grated vegetables, maple syrup, and chocolate chips. Mix until almost combined, then pour in the boiling water.
Mix the baking soda with the white vinegar in a small dish, then add it to the batter. Mix everything until well combined.
Divide the batter evenly into the three prepared tins and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cakes have risen and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Set aside to cool in the tins for 15 minutes before turning out to assemble and serve.
