Instructions

  8. Pour batter into the 8×8 pan and bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Allow to cool completely before frosting – 1 hour approximately. 

Vegan Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting:

  1. Whip together room temperature vegan butter and vegan cream cheese. 
  2. Add vanilla

Notes

If you do not have Bob’s Red Mill egg replacer you can use ground flaxseeds instead. Use 2 tablespoons of flaxseeds with 6 tablespoons of water. 

You can make the buttercream without vegan cream cheese if you would like as well. Simply substitute with more vegan butter.
