Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) baking pan lightly with oil or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of sugar, and 1 tsp of baking powder.
- Stir the dry ingredients together until they are well blended.
- Create three small wells in the dry mixture.
- Pour 1/3 cup of olive oil into the first well, 1 tsp of vinegar into the second well, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract into the third well.
- Add 1 cup of water to the bowl as well.
- Mix all the ingredients together until you have a smooth batter. Make sure there are no lumps. You can use a whisk or a hand mixer on low speed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes.
- Once slightly cooled, remove the cake from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once the cake has cooled completely, slice and serve.
- Optionally, you can dust the cake with powdered sugar or top it with your favorite dairy-free frosting.

- You can use white or apple cider vinegar in this recipe.
- Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly before adding the wet ingredients to ensure an even distribution.
