Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan to prevent sticking.
- In a bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a larger mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated before adding the next.
- Add the buttermilk and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries, ensuring an even distribution throughout the batter.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth it into an even layer.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once done, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Top with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat. For gluten-free, use a gluten-free flour blend. For dairy-free, substitute almond or soy milk with vinegar for buttermilk.
