Plain Cake Recipe

PLAIN CAKE RECIPE

4 cups All purpose flour

3 cups Butter let the butter be at room temperature

10  Eggs

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 cups Sugar

2 tablespoonful Baking powder

2 tablespoonful vanilla

⅛teaspoon salt

Procedure (Plain Cake is easy!)

1. Sieve your flour and baking powder together in a wide bowl and set aside.

2. In a separate bowl or an electric cake mixer, or wooden spoon,  cream the butter and sugar until it is light, fluffy and white, to know that your mixture is fluffy, take a cup of water and pinch some and put in it.

If it floats on top then your mixture is ready. Your mixture is not supposed to be grainy, if its grainy then continue creaming until it goes from grainy to fluffy again.

3.  Add the eggs one after the other as you continue to cream. Please never add your eggs all at once. It will make your barter heavy.

4.  Add the flavor at this stage.

5. Gradually add the milk and the flour mixture, one cup at a time … add a cup of flour then a cup of milk and mix until it’s well incorporated.

6. Grease your cake pan with butter and dust with flour. Pour the cake batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

The batter should fill the pan half way, if you have left over batter, you can pour it into another smaller pan.

7. Bake in the preheated oven (150ºC or the 300ºF) for 1 hour or until the cake is springy to the touch and has started to shrink out from the sides of the pans.

Some ovens bake faster, while others are a bit slow, so check your cake after 45 minutes of placing it in the oven, to know if it is ready or needs further baking.

 For you to know that your cake is ready… put a stick or knife inside, if it comes out clean then your cake is ready.

Remove and ready to serve.
