Equipment

  • 8-inch round cake pans

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 cup Softened Butter
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, vegetable oil, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the gluten free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops.
  • Bake for 28 to 32 minutes until the edges pull away slightly and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely before frosting.
