Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a 9x9-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, and water until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold the rinsed and finely chopped sauerkraut into the batter until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 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 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar or frost with your favorite frosting, if desired. Slice and enjoy!
