How to Make Basic White Cake Vegan

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, cream together the vegan butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the vanilla extract and apple cider vinegar.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the plant-based milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
9. **For Apple Cake Variation:** Once the cake is cooled, slice into layers. Make an apple compote by sauteing 2 cups peeled, cored and diced apples with 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon until softened. Spread apple compote between cake layers and frost with your favorite vegan frosting.
10. Frost and decorate as desired.
