Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Water
- 5 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch (20 cm) square or round cake pan, or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir to evenly combine the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl or measuring cup, mix together the water, vegetable oil, white vinegar, and vanilla extract.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
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 about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your eggless, milkless, butterless cake plain, or top it with powdered sugar, vegan frosting, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup!
