How to Make Pomegranate Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch cake pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs until light and foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until the mixture is thick, pale, and fluffy (about 5-7 minutes using an electric mixer).
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together flour and baking powder.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the pomegranate juice. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Once completely cool, dust with powdered sugar or frost with your favorite buttercream frosting.
