Ingredients

Scale

2 cups All-purpose flour
1 cup Granulated sugar
1 tbsp Baking powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1 cup Plant-based milk (Soy or Oat)
1/3 cup Vegetable oil
1/4 cup Fresh lemon juice

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the plant milk and lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes to curdle.
  4. Add the oil, lemon zest, and vanilla to the milk mixture and whisk well.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Notes

  • Do not over-mix the batter to keep the texture light.
  • Use organic lemons for the best zest flavor.
  • Substitute coconut oil for vegetable oil if preferred.
