Instructions

Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Whisk together the plant milk and lemon juice in a small bowl then set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the all purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add melted vegan butter and sugar to the milk mixture, and whisk until combined.
Transfer wet ingredients into the flour mixture, and whisk together into a smooth batter.
Transfer batter to prepared loaf pan and bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted down the center comes out clean. Remove cake from pan and let cool on a wire cooling rack.

Recipe Notes

Sugar: Make sure your sugar is 100% vegan. Some sugars are processed with bone char!
Make it Gluten Free: Use 1:1 gluten-free all purpose flour.
Make it Added-Sugar Free: Use a vegan sugar substitute like Swerve or allulose. Note that Swerve and allulose would both sub at a 1:1 ratio, but other sugar alternatives may not.
