- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer set on high, beat the sugar, egg substitute and both zestsuntil very thick and fluffy, about 5 minutes. With the mixer still running, slowly drizzle in theoil and beat until incorporated, another 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and add plant milkand lemon juice. Gradually add the flour mixture and beat until just combined. Transfer thebatter to the prepared pan, smooth the top using an offset spatula and sprinkle the top withabout 2 tablespoons sugar.
- Bake the cake until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.Transfer to a rack to cool for 20 minutes, then run a knife around the edge to release the sidesof the cake from the pan. Invert the cake onto a plate and then flip it back over onto the rackto cool completely. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to oneweeK..
