Easy Vegan Chocolate Cake

1 rating

This easy vegan chocolate cake is made using super accessible ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry! A slice of this cake is a slice of heaven. The rich chocolate flavor is heightened by the coffee and apple sauce is a secret ingredient that leaves the final product moist and not crumbly. It can also be made into cupcakes.

Author's Notes

Yields 2 9-inch cake or 24 cupcakes.

To make cupcakes: bake for 22-24 minutes.

Allow your cakes, or cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.

Many store-bought, pre-made frostings are "accidentally vegan" which means many of them don't have any dairy or eggs but make sure you read the ingredients list before you buy just to make sure it's vegan for your vegan chocolate cake.

For Gluten-free: Substitute the whole wheat flour for gluten-free flour at a 1 to 1 ratio.
