  • Add the flour+salt+baking soda mixture to the wet ingredients.Mix well with a whisk or a hand mixer to a smooth batter and ensure there are no lump.
  • At this point,you will see tiny bubbles on the top of the batter due to reaction between baking soda and vinegar.Immediately pour the mixure in a greased cake pan.
