Equipment
Mixing bowl
Spatula
Square Pan

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour gluten-free, if necessary
1 cup sugar * See notes
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white vinegar
5 tablespoon canola oil ** See notes
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup water

Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a square pan with parchment paper, leaving an inch over
each side overhanging, for easy removal.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add your dry ingredients and mix well. Form three caves (depressions)
in the dry mixture. In one, add the vinegar. In the second, add the vanilla extract, and in the
final one, add the Oil. Pour the water over the top and using a whisk or wooden spoon, mix
together, until fully combined.
3. Transfer your vanilla cake batter in the lined pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer
comes out just clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, before
transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. If desired, frost the cooled cake.

Notes
* You can use all white sugar, or part white/brown sugar. You can also use a sugar free substitute,
as referred to in the body of the post. Avoid using all brown sugar (coconut sugar), as it will darken
the cake and also have a slight molasses flavor.
