How to Make Poppy Seed Pound Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in 4 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Stir in 1 cup buttermilk.
Gently fold in 1/4 cup poppy seeds.
Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-60 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.
