Here is how you make Vegan Basic Yellow Cake Mix:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Coat 9 x 5-inch loaf pan or two 5 x 21⁄2-inch pans with cooking spray. (Cake rises better in smaller pans.) Set aside. Using an electric mixer and a large mixer bowl, cream together the applesauce (may need a bit more or less since substituting for oil), granulated sugar (or fructose or splenda), and egg whites/replacer on medium speed until thoroughly blended. Add grated lemon peel. In a medium bowl, combine the flours, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another medium bowl, combine the milk/lemon juice (if using liquid sweetners instead of granular, such as honey or fruit juice concentrate, add it to this step) and vanilla. On low speed, beat the dry ingredients into the "egg" mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Spoon batter into pan(s). Bake the 9 x 5-inch loaf for 50-55 minutes; 35-45 minutes for 5 x 21⁄2-inch pans or until top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool cake in pan for 5 minutes, then remove from pan and cool on rack. Serves 12. To make cupcakes: Bake 12 cupcakes for 20-25 minutes or until firm. To make a layer cake: Bake in a 9-inch nonstick pan for 35-40 minutes or two 8-inch round nonstick pans for 30 minutes. Be sure to line pans with waxed paper or parchment paper and spray with cooking spray for easy cake removal. Cool on wire rack. To make Bundt cake: Grease 6-cup pan thoroughly. Bake 45-50 minutes.
