Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C). Grease and flour or spray an 8 inch round cake pan.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder. Set aside. Clean and slice the strawberries.
- In the stand mixer with the paddle attachment or large bowl beat on medium speed the eggs, yolk and sugar and until light and fluffy, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- Beat in the butter on high speed, then beat in the vanilla.
- Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed, start to combine, add the milk beat just until combined, do not over beat. Fold in the sliced strawberries.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan, sprinkle with Demerara sugar if desired, bake for approximately 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out dry or with a few crumbs attached. Let the cake cool in the pan approximately 20-25 minutes then move to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar and or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream before serving. Enjoy!
If after 30 minutes you noticed the top is browning too much, then cover the cake tent style with foil and continue baking.
