Vegan chocolate cake is super easy to make and a vegan chocolate cake with a recipe is even easier!
You will need:
- 1 1/2 cups organic, unbleached flour, sifted (regular flour works)
- 6 tablespoons organic cocoa powder, sifted (regular cocoa works)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 cup evaporated cane juice (organic sugar) (regular sugar works )
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 5 T canola oil (may substitute safflower oil)
- 2 tsp raspberry vinegar *optional
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or 1/2 tsp almond extract
- 1 1/4 cup vanilla soy, hemp or almond milk (if batter seems too thick, add more)
- fresh berries of choice – blackberries, raspberries, strawberries or blueberries
To make vegan chocolate cake, first:
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- Place flour, cocoa, baking powder and soda, sugar and salt in a medium size mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Pour the soy milk, oil, vinegar, and vanilla into the flour mixture.
- Whisk the wet and dry ingredients together until smooth, then pour into a 9 x 9 inch baking pan. (Spray cake pan with nonstick cooking spray before pouring in cake batter.)
- Bake the cake at 350 F for about 25 – 30 minutes. After 25-30 minutes test if the cake is done with a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done! Cool the vegan chocolate cake on a cooling rack, and then remove from pan. If you baked the cake in a glass baking dish, the cake should slip out easily once it has thoroughly cooled.
- Garnish with fresh berries of your choice, cut and serve.
