Ingredients
  

1 cup semolina

1 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup plant-based milk

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon lemon or orange zest

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch baking pan.
    In a bowl, whisk together semolina, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
    In another bowl, mix plant-based milk, oil, lemon juice, vanilla, and zest.
    Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix gently until smooth.
    Let the batter rest for 10 minutes so the semolina absorbs liquid.
    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
    Bake for 30–35 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
    Cool slightly, slice, and serve.
