25 grams

5 grams

Salt
2 grams

White Sugar
200 grams

Water
240 ml

Vanilla extract
15ml

Vinegar
15ml

Oil (Coconut, canola, light olive)
80ml

Step 1

Preheat oven to 170c and grease up a 20cm springform pan with butter.

Step 2

Chuck the plain flour, cocoa, bi-carb soda and salt into a bowl give it a stir and make sure you SIFT IT 4 TIMES

Step 3

Into a decent jug, put your water, sugar, oil, vinegar and vanilla then stir it to dissolve as much of the sugar as you can, no stress if there’s a little left over.
