What you’ll need:
1 tbsp. white vinegar
½ cup plant-based milk
¼ cup vegetable oil
½ cup boiling water
Step 1: Prepare
Preheat oven to 350º F. Spray an 8" pan with non-stick spray or line your cupcake tin.
Add the vinegar to a measuring cup. Pour in milk until the mixture hits the 1-cup line and let sit for 5 minutes without stirring to create "buttermilk".
Step 2: Mix
Combine the cake mix, boiling water, oil and “buttermilk” in a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth (about 1 minute).
Step 3: Bake
Pour batter into pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Approximately 30-40 minutes for an 8" cake and 15-20 minutes for cupcakes.
Step 4: Cool & Enjoy
Let cake or cupcakes cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing from pan.

TIP: Top with a Novelty decorating kit, coconut whipped cream, fresh berries, or melted chocolate
