Ingredients

1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
¾ cup of granulated sugar
1 teaspoon of baking soda
½ teaspoon of salt
1 ½ teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of white or apple cider vinegar
¼ cup + 1 tablespoons of canola or vegetable oil
1 cup water
1 ½ tablespoons of lemon juice

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a cake pan.
In the bowl of an electric mixer (or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer), mix together all the ingredients until smooth. You can also mix this by hand if you don’t have either.
Pour the batter into the pan.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Test by sticking a toothpick in the middle. If the toothpick comes out dry, the cake is done.
