Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ⅔ cups (235g) all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ¼ cups (250g) granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 2 large egg whites, at room temperature
- 6 tablespoon (84g) unsalted butter, melted
- 3 tablespoon (45ml) sunflower oil
- ½ cup (120ml) full fat sour cream
- 1 ½ teaspoon (7ml) pure vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup (160ml) whole milk, warmed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 13×9-inch metal baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the long sides for easy removal.
- Sift the dry ingredients. Use a fine mesh sieve to sift flour, baking powder, and baking soda into a large bowl. Add sugar and salt, whisking to blend well.
- Mix the wet ingredients. In a medium bowl, add egg, egg whites, melted butter, oil, sour cream, and vanilla, whisking until well combined.
- Warm the milk. Heat the milk in a microwave for about 1 minute until steaming but not boiling.
- Combine the ingredients. Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour in the wet mixture. Mix with an electric mixer on medium-low, or use a stand mixer. Gradually add hot milk, mixing until smooth.
- Bake the cake. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and tap it on the counter to release air bubbles. Bake for 23-27 minutes, until springy and a skewer comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack.
- Prepare frosting. While the cake cools, prepare your favorite frosting.
- Frost the cake. Once cooled, spread or pipe frosting over the top.
