·       1 teaspoon baking soda

·       1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

·       1 cup cool water

·       6 Tablespoons vegetable

·       1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice or distilled white vinegar

Instructions:

1.     Preheat oven to 176° C. Grease a 20 cm round cake pan.

2.     Sift dry ingredients into a bowl and set aside.

3.     In a measuring cup combine water, oil, juice and vanilla.

4.     Add liquids to bowl & gently stir until there are no lumps (about 30 seconds).

5.     Pour into pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Frosting

 

·      2 tablespoons vegan butter

·      1 cup icing sugar or powdered sugar

Notes:

 

I have used a food processor for the icing but you can use a hand held mixer.  Make sure that the cake is completely cooled down before to remove from pan.
