Easy Butter Loaf Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup whole milk
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
2. Cream the butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
3. Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Pour into the pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Bake: Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve: Slice and serve your buttery, moist loaf cake. It's perfect on its own or with a cup of tea or coffee!
