In another bowl, whisk sugar and oil until smooth. Add milk, vanilla extract, and vinegar. Mix well.
Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix gently until a smooth batter forms.
Fold chopped fruits gently into the batter. Do not overmix.
Pour batter into the prepared tin. Bake for 35–40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
