Description
🍫 This easy no-egg chocolate crazy cake is perfect for those seeking a simple, allergen-friendly dessert without milk, butter, or eggs.
🥄 Made in one pan with pantry staples and no bowls needed, it’s a quick treat that’s moist and delicious every time.
Ingredients
1 ½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
5 tablespoons (about ⅓ cup or 80 ml) canola or vegetable oil
1 cup (240 ml) water
Optional toppings: powdered sugar or dairy-free frosting
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease or spray an 8-inch square baking pan.
2. In the prepared pan (or a large bowl for easier mixing), combine flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
3. Make three indentations in the dry ingredients: two small wells and one larger well.
4. Pour vinegar into one small well, vanilla extract into the other, and oil into the larger well.
5. Pour water evenly over all ingredients.
6. Stir all together until smooth and fully combined.
7. Bake in the center rack for about 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
8. Let cool completely before adding powdered sugar or frosting if desired.
Notes
⚠️ Vinegar is essential for leavening; do not omit or substitute with baking powder.
🌱 This recipe is naturally dairy-free, egg-free, and vegan-friendly, suitable for allergen-sensitive diets.
🎂 For fluffier cake, use gluten-free flour blends or try flavor variations like chocolate chips or spices.
