Let's take a look at what you'll need to make this delicious pound cake.

Ingredients

  • 2 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, at room temperature
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 10-inch tube pan and set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

Using an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until each egg is fully incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the vanilla extract and beat until combined.

With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
