  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: Approximately 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. 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.
  3. In another bowl, mix all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and use a rubber spatula to fold gently until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in hulled strawberries into the batter until evenly distributed.
  6. 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.
  7. For the strawberry sauce, combine halved strawberries and granulated sugar in a bowl. Let them sit for about 15 minutes until syrup forms.
  8. Once cooled, dust your cake with powdered sugar if desired. Slice and serve topped with strawberry sauce.
