Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free 1:1 blend)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil (or coconut/canola oil)
  • 1 cup water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  • Make three small wells in the dry mixture. Pour the white vinegar into one well, vanilla extract into another, and vegetable oil into the third.
  • Pour the water over the mixture and stir until smooth. The batter will be thin but this is normal.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Serve plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or topped with your favorite frosting. Enjoy!

Notes

For a chocolate version, add ¼ cup cocoa powder to the dry ingredients. You can also make cupcakes by baking at 350°F (175°C) for 18-20 minutes.
