  • Preheat Oven and Prepare Ingredients:
    • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of instant coffee with warm coffee. Add vanilla extract, baking soda, and currants, stirring until frothy.
  • Prepare Dry Ingredients:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together spelt flour, cocoa powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  • Cream Butter and Sugars:
    • In a mixing bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth and creamy.
    • Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually pour in the coffee mixture while continuing to mix.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
    • With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the spelt flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined, ensuring there are no lumps.
  • Prepare the Bundt Pan:
    • Generously butter a bundt pan, ensuring all surfaces are coated. Dust the inside of the pan with cocoa powder, shaking off any excess.
