Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 50 min
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour (the base that keeps the cake light and tender.); 1.5 cups granulated sugar (balances the strawberry’s tartness; for a lighter option, reduce to 1 cup.); 1 teaspoon baking powder (helps the cake rise evenly.); 0.5 teaspoon baking soda (adds gentle lift and texture.); 0.5 teaspoon salt (enhances all the flavors.); 2 large eggs, room temperature (bind the batter and add richness; use flax eggs for a vegan alternative.); 1 cup buttermilk, room temperature (keeps the cake moist; plain yogurt thinned with milk works as a substitute.); 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled (gives a tender crumb; swap half with neutral oil for a softer texture.); 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (rounds the flavors beautifully.); 1.5 cups hulled, pureed strawberries (fresh or thawed frozen will do; for an extra punch, stir in 1/2 cup chopped berries.); 0.25 cup strawberry jam (optional) (intensifies the strawberry flavor when folded into the batter.)
