Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step
15 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, and baking powder until thoroughly combined. Add the softened butter and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is light and creamy. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully mixed in before adding the next. Gradually pour in the milk and vanilla extract, beating until the batter is smooth and velvety, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. (15 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Pour the prepared batter into the greased cake pan, spreading evenly. (2 minutes)

04

Step
40 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean, about 40 minutes. (40 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For an extra moist cake, consider adding a tablespoon of applesauce to the batter.
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal emulsification and a smoother batter.
If you want to try chocolate flavour, add 1/4 cup of cocoa powder into the flour, and increase the amount of milk to 3/4 cup.

  • Alayna Rippin

    The cake was a little dry. Next time, I'll try adding a tablespoon of sour cream to the batter.
