In a medium bowl, mix the vanilla extract, oil, vinegar, and cold water.

Slowly whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix. The mixture will be quite wet, but this is okay.
5
Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about ⏱️ 30 minutes. For cupcakes, the baking time is 24 to ⏱️ 26 minutes.
6
Cool in the pans for ⏱️ 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool. Editor’s note: Cake is pictured with Vegan Fluffy Buttercream Frosting. This recipe first appeared on Epicurious in June 2009. The intro has been updated. Head this way for more of our best vegan desserts →
