Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons plant-based butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your cake pan and lightly dust it with flour to prevent the cake from sticking and ensure a smooth release.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. This step is essential for an even distribution of ingredients and a light crumb structure.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the vegetable oil, plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract (natural), and melted plant-based butter until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Bring Wet and Dry Together: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients while gently folding them together. Be careful not to overmix; stir just until no lumps remain to maintain the cake’s fluffiness.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and place it in the oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden.
  6. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. This cooling step helps the cake settle, resulting in that unforgettable tender texture.

Notes

  • Make sure all wet ingredients are at room temperature to ensure smooth mixing and even baking.
  • Do not overmix to avoid developing gluten which can make the cake tough.
  • Check that your baking powder is fresh for the lightest, airiest results.
  • Avoid opening the oven early to prevent the cake from sinking.
  • Test doneness with a toothpick or skewer for perfect baking every time.
