Simple Yellow Cake - Non-Dairy Version
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar (if you want a sweet cake add another 1/2 cup)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup soy milk, almond milk or apple juice for non-dairy diets
- 1/2 cup olive oil (or light oil like canola)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Put the dry ingredients in the mixer with the whisk attachment and run it on low to sift ingredients. Add the eggs, milk (or milk substitute) and olive oil and mix together.
Pour into two 8-inch pans that have been oiled and floured. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.
Note: I mix up the dry ingredients in my mixer and put into a Ziplock bag in the freezer. It is better than the box mix!
