How to Make Easy Vegan Chocolate Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ cups sugar, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, ¾ teaspoon baking soda, and ¾ teaspoon salt.
- Create three wells in the dry ingredients.
- Pour ½ cup vegetable oil into one well, 1 tablespoon white vinegar into another, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into the last well.
- Gradually pour in 1 cup of water, mixing gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan. For cupcakes, fill each liner ¾ full.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes for the cake, or 20-22 minutes for cupcakes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool completely before frosting (optional).
