  2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt, add to the batter and beat on medium until smooth approximately 1 minute.

Notes

  • To make homemade cake/pastry flour, for every cup of all purpose flour, remove two tablespoons and replace with two tablespoons of corn starch. Be sure to sift the flour and cornstarch together a couple of times, this way it is sure to be properly combined and lump free. 
  • The cake is best stored in the refrigerator, wrap it well in plastic. It will keep 4-5 days in the fridge.
  • Freeze, the completely cooled cake. Wrap it well in plastic wrap and foil, then place it in a freezer safe bag or container. It will keep for up to 3 months in the freezer.
  • Thaw the cake overnight still wrapped in the fridge. Unwrap the thawed cake and bring to room temperature before serving.
