Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
2 tablespoons homemade strawberry syrup
1 cup heavy cream, whipped
Fresh strawberries for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan to ensure easy removal of the cake.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will take about 5 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Incorporate the strawberry puree and homemade strawberry syrup, blending until the mixture is smooth and even.
Gradually add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, top with freshly whipped cream and garnish with sliced strawberries.
