Vanilla Cake
- 150 g all-purpose flour
- 100 g granulated sugar
- 1 g baking soda
- 50 g egg 1 large egg
- 18 g egg yolk
- 80 g buttermilk or milk
- 85 g unsalted butter softened
- 5 g vanilla extract
Preheat your oven to 175°C. Prepare an 8×8 inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper and lightly greasing it.
Start with the crumb topping. In a bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Add melted butter and stir until the mixture becomes crumbly. Set it aside for later.
Now move to the cake batter. In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugar together until the mixture looks pale, soft, and creamy.
Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix well so everything combines smoothly. Then gradually add flour, baking soda, and milk, mixing gently until you get a smooth, lump-free batter.
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the crumb topping generously over the surface.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let it cool completely before cutting into squares and serving.
