Delicious Streusbury Cake

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Streusbury Cake.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven warms up, take a moment to grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan, ensuring your cake will slide out easily once baked. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder, setting this mixture aside for later. Now, in a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together using an electric mixer. Mix until the mixture becomes light and fluffy, and you notice a change in color—this is key for a great texture! Next, add the eggs one at a time, making sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. With the last egg, mix in the vanilla extract for that lovely aroma. Now, it’s time to combine the dry and wet ingredients. Pour the flour mixture into the bowl alternately with the milk, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; we want a tender cake! Once your batter is ready, pour it into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Once baked, allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before carefully removing it. Enjoy your delicious creation!
