Ingredients

2 ¼ cups cake flour
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract optional
½ cup vegetable oil
4 large room temperature egg whites

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray two 8-inch round cake pans with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.*
In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, sift together 2 ¼ cups cake flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
To the same bowl, add 1 cup buttermilk, ¼ cup milk, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon almond extract (if using), and ½ cup vegetable oil. Mix together using the paddle attachment or use an electric hand mixer. Mix just until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, add 4 large room temperature egg whites. Using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites until you reach medium stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter.
Separate the cake batter evenly into the two prepared cake pans. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean and the center of the cake springs back when lightly pressed.

Notes

If you’d like you can add a parchment round in the bottom of the pan and give that a light spray of cooking spray as well, but it’s not necessary if you don’t have parchment.
