Hello! My name is Eli Duke and right now I'm hanging out in Portland, OR.

Vanilla Almond Wacky Cake

My family has been making Wacky Cake for a quite a few years, but for some reason we always make it chocolate. In an effort to try out all possible options for a Vegan Wedding Dessert, I took a cue from Sylvia and went with the Vanilla Almond. It just came out of the oven and it smells delicious!

Vanilla Almond Wacky Cake

(for a 8″ square/circle pan, double this recipe for a 9 by 13)

Sift together into the pan in which you will be baking the cake:

  • 1 3/4 cups flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix the dry ingredients together with a fork, making sure to get an even mixture. Then make 4 wells (some big, some small, and some just right) in the dry ingredients. Pour one of the following ingredients into each of the wells (respectively):

  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Then pour 1 cup of cold water over the whole thing and mix well with a fork. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes… until a toothpick comes out clean.

YUMMY!!!!!!

I've been waiting all summer for this, and it just had to show up 3 days before I leave. Thanks a lot, Portland.
