Vegetarian

Ingredients

  • 2.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.5 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
  2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the beaten eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  4. Step 4: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Step 5: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
