This easy-to-make vanilla sour cream pound cake will become your new favourite tea accompaniment due to its melt-in-your-mouth texture and irresistible flavour. It uses staple pantry ingredients and comes together quickly. Here's a recipe you can try:

Ingredients

1 cup softened, unsalted butter 2 cups granulated sugar 4 large eggs 1 cup of sour cream 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt

Step 1

Turn the oven on to 165°C. Coat a 10-inch tube pan or bundt pan with butter and flour. Beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Step 2

One egg at a time, adding and beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla essence and sour cream until thoroughly blended.

Step 3

Mix the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.

Step 4

Mixing until just incorporated, gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ones. Be cautious not to blend too much. Evenly distribute the batter in the bundt pan.

Step 5

Bake for 60–70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.

Step 6

After taking the cake out of the oven, allow it to cool for approximately fifteen minutes. Before slicing and serving, carefully turn the cake onto a wire rack to cool entirely.
