Easy Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake Recipe (Rich & Moist!) 🍫

Who said gluten-free desserts couldn't be deliciously moist and indulgent? This gluten-free chocolate cake recipe is easy, quick, and guaranteed to impress even your gluten-eating friends!

Ingredients:

• 1½ cups gluten-free flour blend (like Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free Flour)

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (organic cocoa powder)

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• ½ teaspoon salt

• 1 cup warm water

• ½ cup coconut oil (melted)

• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (Bragg Organic ACV)

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat Oven & Prepare Pan

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

• Grease a 9-inch cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients

• In another bowl, mix warm water, melted coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract.

• Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined. To make mixing even easier and quicker, I recommend using a KitchenAid Stand Mixer.

Step 4: Bake

• Pour batter into the prepared cake pan.

• Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 5: Cool & Serve

• Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a cooling rack (like this affordable cooling rack).

• Frost with your favorite gluten-free chocolate icing or dust lightly with powdered sugar.

Recommended Tools:

• KitchenAid Stand Mixer (saves time & ensures smooth batter)

• Non-Stick Cake Pan

Quick Tips:

• For extra richness, add chocolate chips to the batter.

• Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
