The cake was gone by day two at my house at six. Everyone begged me to make another one.

Step 3: Fold in the Dry Ingredients

  1. Gently sift the flour into the wet mixture.
  2. Fold the flour in slowly using a spatula or spoon. Be careful not to overmix—overmixing can make the cake dense.

Step 4: Add the Strawberries

  1. Gently fold in sliced strawberries, reserving a few for topping.
  2. Make sure the strawberries are evenly distributed but avoid mashing them.

Step 5: Bake the Cake

  1. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
  2. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  3. Bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  4. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 6: Decorate and Serve

  1. Arrange the reserved strawberry slices on top for a beautiful, fresh finish.
  2. Optionally, dust lightly with powdered sugar or add a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
  3. Slice, serve, and watch everyone marvel at how something so simple tastes so heavenly!

Why This Cake Works

The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity. Only five ingredients create a tender, moist cake where the natural strawberry flavor shines. No complicated steps, no exotic ingredients—just pure, sweet satisfaction.


Pro Tips

  • Fresh is best: Frozen strawberries can release too much water and make the cake soggy.
  • Room temperature eggs: They help the cake rise evenly.
  • Variations: Add a handful of chocolate chips or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a fun twist.
