Ingredients
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup light olive oil (or vegetable oil)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (measured correctly)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 12 oz strawberries (hulled)
- 16 oz strawberries (hulled and halved)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (or to taste)
- 1 tsp powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs until light and frothy. Add granulated sugar and mix well. Stir in sour cream, olive oil, and vanilla extract until combined.
- In another bowl, mix all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and use a rubber spatula to fold gently until just combined.
- Gently fold in hulled strawberries into the batter until evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for about 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow cooling for about 10 minutes before transferring it onto a wire rack.
- For the strawberry sauce, combine halved strawberries and granulated sugar in a bowl. Let them sit for about 15 minutes until syrup forms.
- Once cooled, dust your cake with powdered sugar if desired. Slice and serve topped with strawberry sauce.
