Top Tips:
You can add fruit to the bottom for an upside down cake, just don’t line with baking paper.
Or sprinkle choc chips or raisins on the top prior to cooking.
If you don’t have any vanilla extract don’t worry – it’s not essential!

Equipment needed: Mixing bowl, oven, oven tray(s) and sieve
Preheat your oven to 180°C fan/200°C non fan/gas mark 6.
Line baking tray(s) with baking paper.
Mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar together in a bowl and whisk together until combined. Whisk quite quickly to get it light and powdery. If you got time, put it through a sieve a couple of times, not essential though.
Add in the vanilla, oil/butter and half of the water. Stir until no lumps remain. Add the remaining water and stir until the batter is smooth.
Pour batter into baking tray. Place in oven for about 40 minutes. Use a skewer to check if it is cooked all the way through, it should come out clean when the cake is ready.
Allow to cool before cutting.
