Ultimate White Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
This recipe requires you to have a few basic ingredients ready to go. You will need: 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of butter (at room temperature), 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, 1 cup of buttermilk, 4 large egg whites (at room temperature), 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract.
Instructions:
Start off by preheating your oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans, and line the bottoms with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the butter and sugar. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. With the mixer on low, slowly add the oil and mix until incorporated. Add the egg whites one at a time, beating until just combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Add the buttermilk and vanilla and almond extracts, and beat until just combined. Slowly add the flour mixture, a little at a time, and beat until just combined. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack and let cool completely. Once cooled, frost with your favorite white frosting.
