Easy and Delicious Eggless Vanilla Cake Recipe: Step-by-Step Guide
Ishdeep AnandShare
Making an eggless vanilla cake at home is quite simple. Here is a step-by-step guide:
Ingredients
- 1 and 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (240ml) water
- 1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl or measuring cup, combine the water, vegetable oil, vinegar, and vanilla extract.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined and there are no lumps. Be careful not to over-mix the batter.
5. Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
8. Optional - Frosting: Once the cake is completely cool, you can frost it with your favorite frosting. For a simple vanilla frosting, beat together 1/2 cup (115g) of softened butter, 2 cups (250g) of powdered sugar, 2-3 tablespoons of milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Tips
Measurement: Make sure to measure your ingredients accurately, especially the flour. Spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife.
Mixing: Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined. Over-mixing can result in a dense cake.
Baking Time: Keep an eye on your cake as it bakes. Ovens vary, so it’s a good idea to start checking for doneness a few minutes before the end of the suggested baking time.
