Vegan Cake ### Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond milk, vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine!
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, this cake can be enjoyed as is or dressed up with your favorite vegan frosting. Simply slice into it, and enjoy a slice of nostalgia with every bite. This vegan cake not only satisfies your sweet tooth but also carries with it a story of traditional baking that connects us all. Happy baking!
