If you love a moist, buttery pound cake bursting with fresh strawberry flavor, you’re in for a treat! This Strawberry Buttermilk Pound Cake is the perfect
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan, making sure to coat every nook and cranny to prevent sticking.
2. Cream the Butter & SugarIn a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy—this takes about 3-5 minutes and helps create a tender cake.
3. Add the EggsAdd eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. This step ensures the batter stays smooth and well incorporated.
4. Mix the Dry IngredientsIn a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This evenly distributes the leavening agents for a uniform rise.
5. Combine Wet & Dry IngredientsGradually mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, alternating with buttermilk. Start and end with the dry ingredients for the best texture.
6. Add Vanilla & StrawberriesStir in vanilla extract. Toss the strawberries with 1 tbsp flour to prevent them from sinking, then gently fold them into the batter.
7. Bake to PerfectionPour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 75-85 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool & ServeLet the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
