Step 1

Preheat the oven on convection to 350°F (177°C) and grease and line three 4 inch cake pans.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt until they're evenly distributed.

Step 3

Place the oil and the granulated sugar in a large bowl and use an electric mixer with the whisk attachment to beat them, until they're smooth.

Step 4

Then add the egg and beat on medium speed for 1-2 minutes. Add the sour cream and vanilla extract and beat just until combined.

Step 5

Add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, turn the mixer on low speed and then pour in the milk, followed by the rest of the dry ingredients. Mix just until the last streak of flour is combined.

Step 6

Distribute the batter evenly among the three cake pans and bake for 20 minutes. When the cake is fully baked it will release itself from the edge of the pan and it will spring back if you press on the center of it.
