VANILLA WACKY CAKE



Vanilla Wacky Cake image

The "wacky" in the title refers to breaking all the rules of baking. Born out of necessity during the Great Depression, this cake swaps out the expected milk, butter and eggs-which were expensive and hard to find at the time-for water, oil and vinegar. And, yet, through some smart kitchen science, the cake still comes out fluffy, light and not a bit dry. You can mix up the batter right in the baking pan (no bowl required!) with ingredients you probably already have in your pantry. This is a vintage hack that feels like a new classic.

Time 1h45m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/3 cup vegetable oil, plus more for greasing the pan
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups frosting or whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with vegetable oil.
  • Sift the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt through a fine-mesh strainer directly into the prepared baking pan. Stir together with a fork (or a silicone whisk if using a nonstick baking pan). Add the oil, vinegar, vanilla and 1 cup water; stir with the fork until fully incorporated. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, about 1 hour. Frost the top of the cake with the frosting, if using. Cut into 9 squares and serve each with a dollop of whipped cream, if using.

Susan's Favourite One Bowl Cake, Aka Wacky Cake image

My sister sent me this recipe. Some years ago I had asked her if she still had the recipe for WACKY CAKE that she used to make when I was a little girl. She said that she didn't but then she came across this recipe that she had found in the local newspaper and because it was so similar, she decided to send it to me. This recipe was entered by Brenna Ekstand from Rosetown, Sask. into a recipe contest sponsored by Fry's Cocoa. She found it in her grandmother's handwritten collection.
