How to Make Buttermilk Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon orange extract (or your favorite extract).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer 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.
