Equipment
- Measuring Spoons and Cups
- Cooling Rack
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbps baking powder
- 1/4 tbps Salt
- 1/2 cup vegan butter
- 1 cup non-dairy milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a cake pan with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine the non-dairy milk and vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit for a few minutes to curdle slightly, creating a vegan "buttermilk."
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the vegan butter or oil and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually pour in the non-dairy milk mixture while stirring continuously, until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
- If using any optional flavorings or add-ins, gently fold them into the batter until evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- After cooling, carefully transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, you can frost the cake with your favorite vegan frosting or enjoy it as is.
- Slice and serve your delicious vegan cake, and enjoy.
Notes
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure that your vegan butter (if using) and non-dairy milk are at room temperature before mixing. This helps create a smoother batter and promotes even baking.
- Don't Overmix: Mix the batter until just combined. Overmixing can result in a dense and tough cake. A few lumps in the batter are okay; they'll usually bake out in the oven.
- Properly Grease Cake Pans: Make sure to grease the cake pans generously or line them with parchment paper to prevent the cake from sticking. This ensures easy removal and helps maintain the cake's shape.
