Ingredients
- 1/3 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ tablespoon red food coloring
- 1 teaspoon vinegar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Greek yogurt frosting
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2-3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- chocolate chips optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and line a 9-inch cake pan with parchment paper.

- In another small bowl, sift the dry ingredients together until thoroughly incorporated.
- Pour the milk mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

- If making the Greek yogurt frosting, simply stir all ingredients together. Stack and frost cake wedges with your desired frosting.
