Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch round or square baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, and water.
Using a spatula or whisk, mix the ingredients until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with the spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve as is, or frost with your favorite dairy-free frosting for an extra touch of sweetness.
