Description
A simple and delicious cake made entirely in a blender for minimal cleanup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder (optional, for chocolate cake)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- Add all dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cocoa powder if using) to your blender. Pulse a few times to combine.
- Add all wet ingredients (buttermilk, oil, eggs, vanilla extract) to the blender.
- Blend on high speed until the batter is smooth and well combined, about 1-2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder.
- You can add chocolate chips or nuts to the batter before baking.
- This cake is delicious served with frosting or a simple dusting of powdered sugar.
