Classic Vanilla Cake
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 pinches salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a moment to prepare your cake pan by spraying it with cooking spray and lining the inside with parchment paper.
3
Meanwhile, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt in a large mixing container.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and vegetable oil until well combined.
5
Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a manual or electric mixer on low speed until you achieve a smooth consistency.
6
If the batter appears too thin, add a small amount of flour to achieve the desired texture.
7
Pour the prepared batter into your cake pan, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
8
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9
Immediately transfer the cake to a wire rack for 5 minutes of cooling time.
10
To release the cake from the pan, gently insert a table knife around the edges and loosen it.
11
Carefully invert the cake onto another wire rack, taking care not to break any delicate layers.
12
Allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
