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

Lemon Vanilla Wacky Cake

In an effort to fully explore all the Vegan Strawberry Shortcake options for Nate & Ingrid’s wedding, we have to be open to all possibilities. So far we’ve tried your typical Wacky Cake, Vegan Shortcake, Vanilla Almond Wacky Cake, and last night we experimented a bit more.

Lemon Vanilla 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 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 teaspoon lemon zest

Then pour 1 tablespoon of lemon juice into 1 cup of cold water and pour that over the whole thing: mix well with a fork. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes… until a toothpick comes out clean.

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