Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
- 0.3 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease an 8x8-inch square baking pan or a 9-inch round pan with a little vegetable oil or cooking spray.
In the baking pan, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Using a spoon or your finger, make three small wells in the dry ingredients for the liquid ingredients.
Pour the vegetable oil into one well, the vinegar into the second, and the vanilla extract into the third.
Cover the entire mixture with water and stir everything together with a fork or small whisk until the batter is smooth and all dry ingredients are incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 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 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve plain, with a dusting of powdered sugar, or top with your favorite vegan frosting. Enjoy!
