Ingredients

    • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

    • 2 cups granulated sugar

    • 4 large eggs

    • 3 cups all-purpose flour

    • ½ tsp baking powder

    • ¼ tsp baking soda

    • ½ tsp salt

    • 1 cup buttermilk

    • 1 tsp vanilla extract

    • 2 cups fresh strawberries, diced

    • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour (to coat strawberries)

What You’ll Need

    • 10-inch Bundt pan

    • Hand or stand mixer

    • Mixing bowls

    • Whisk

    • Spatula

  • Cooling rack

Instructions

1. Prep the Oven & Pan

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 & Sugar

In 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 Eggs

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. This step ensures the batter stays smooth and well incorporated.

4. Mix the Dry Ingredients

In 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 Ingredients

Gradually 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 & Strawberries

Stir 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 Perfection

Pour 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 & Serve

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
