Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the water, vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract.
Gently mix the wet and dry ingredients together using a whisk or spatula until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Frost or dust with powdered sugar as desired, and enjoy your egg-free, milk-free chocolate cake!
