INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
5 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp white vinegar
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup water cold
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In an UNGREASED 9X9 pan add the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Using a whisk stir together the ingredients right in the pan to kind of sift it all together.
Next using your fingers or a spoon make a good sized well in the middle and two smaller wells one on each side of the center well.
Place the vegetable oil in the center well.
Place the vinegar in a small well and the vanilla in the other small well.
Pour the cold water over all of the ingredients.
Using the whisk, stir until combined. You can also use a spoon to get into the corners and further mix until smooth. If there are bubbles in your batter, gently tap the pan on the countertop to release the bubbles.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean. Remove from oven to cool completely before serving.
Ice with frosting or powdered sugar or plain.
TO MAKE VANILLA FROSTING:
You will need
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla (clear vanilla, if you have it)
5 cups powdered sugar
¼ cup milk or more if needed for desired consistency
Place the melted butter in a medium mixing bowl. Add the vanilla, powdered sugar, and milk. Using a mixer, mix together until smooth. May need additional milk to reach desired consistency. Beat for 2-3 minutes scraping down the sides intermittently.
Recipe for both cake and frosting can be easily doubled for a 9×13 plan.
If using an 8×8 pan, increase cooking time by 3-6 minutes as cake will be thicker.

Vanilla Depression Cake Recipe - this makes two cakes to be stacked together, obviously halve the recipe if you just want one smaller cake!
3 Cups of Plain Flour
2 Cups of Sugar
2 Teaspoons of Baking Soda
1 Teaspoon of Salt
Mix dry ingredients together, then add:
2 Teaspoons of White Vinegar
3 Teaspoons of Vanilla Essence
10 Tablespoons of Oil (I just used Canola)
2 Cups of Water
Mix all ingredients together, pour into two 20cm greased cake tins and bake in a preheated oven at 175oC for 35 minutes, leaving to cool on the bench afterwards.
Icing can be whatever you like, but I recommend a buttercream icing (which I'm terrible at making so won't submit a recipe just yet - give me time!)
Crazy Wacky Depression Cake Recipe (Vegan, Dairy-free and Eggless)
This popular wacky depression vanilla cake recipe is eggless, dairy-free, and vegan! It was popular to make cakes like this during the Depression era when eggs, butter, and milk were harder to come by.
Because it omits dairy and eggs, our Vanilla Crazy Cake recipe can also be a great option for those who have food allergies or follow a vegan diet. The best part—it’s a very affordable cake to make from scratch when you don’t have to buy eggs and butter… and it’s so YUMMY! My family requests it often!
Here's a link to the Wacky Vanilla Cake recipe!
