Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch round cake pan. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the high-protein wheat flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Into the well, add the eggs, vanilla extract, vegetable oil, and water. Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just smooth. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the cake batter into the prepared 10-inch round cake pan, spreading it evenly. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. (30 minutes)

06

Step

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or glazing. (10 minutes)

For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of lemon zest to the batter.
If you don't have high-protein wheat flour, you can substitute with all-purpose flour, but the texture may be slightly different.
A simple glaze of powdered sugar and milk (or lemon juice) perfectly complements this cake.
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal mixing and even baking.
