You can also use cake flour to ensure a light and fluffy texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Baking Powder<\/strong> &#8211; I prefer to use aluminum-free baking powder in my baking. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Baking Soda<\/strong> &#8211; Since this recipe includes buttermilk, you will need to use baking soda.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Salt<\/strong> &#8211; A pinch of salt is needed to enhance the sweetness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Butter<\/strong> &#8211; Soften the butter to room temperature before mixing. I generally use salted butter, but you can use unsalted if you wish. <br>[Resource: <a href=\"https:\/\/addapinch.com\/how-to-soften-butter\/\">How to Soften Butter<\/a>]<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sugar<\/strong> &#8211; I use granulated white sugar. You can also use your favorite sugar substitute made for baking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eggs<\/strong> &#8211; Make sure your eggs are room temperature for the best mixing in this cake recipe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/addapinch.com\/homemade-buttermilk-substitute-recipe\/\">Buttermilk<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; If you don&#8217;t have buttermilk on hand, you can easily make a buttermilk substitute with any of the easy methods I share in this guide. <br>[Resource: <a href=\"https:\/\/addapinch.com\/homemade-buttermilk-substitute-recipe\/\">How to Make Buttermilk<\/a>]<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/addapinch.com\/homemade-vanilla-extract-recipe\/\">Vanilla Extract<\/a> &#8211; I use my <a href=\"https:\/\/addapinch.com\/homemade-vanilla-extract-recipe\/\">homemade vanilla extract<\/a>, but you can use a high-quality store-bought extract if you prefer. (Note: If you only have imitation vanilla flavoring on hand, you can use it as a substitute since this is a baked good, although I believe the resulting flavor when using pure vanilla extract is preferable. For reference, the taste difference is most noticeable between vanilla extract and vanilla flavoring in unbaked goods such as <a href=\"https:\/\/addapinch.com\/perfect-whipped-cream-recipe\/\">whipped cream<\/a>, frostings, icing, and <a href=\"https:\/\/addapinch.com\/chocolate-no-bake-cookies-recipe\/\">no-bake cookies<\/a>.
