Wet Ingredients
Butter: Becel plant-based bricks are my personal favorite for baking but any brick-style dairy-free, vegan, lactose-free, or regular butter will work. Make sure it’s at room temperature.
Sour Cream: This adds extra moisture to the cake without making it too greasy/heavy. It also provides that delicious tang. This can be replaced with plain yogurt or cream cheese. Use whatever version best suits your dietary/lifestyle needs.
Applesauce: I prefer to bake with unsweetened applesauce but if that’s not available, use what you have.
Vanilla Extract: I recommend using pure vanilla extract but whatever is in your pantry will work.
Optional Almond Extract: While optional, the addition of almond extract adds a delicious flavor profile.
