Place the cake into a cold oven. Set the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (90 minutes)

Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate or cooling rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)
09 Step
Recipe View
Allow to cool completely, 20 to 30 minutes. (30 minutes)
Ensure all ingredients, especially the butter and eggs, are at room temperature for optimal emulsification and a smoother batter.
Do not overmix the batter once the flour is added, as this can develop the gluten and result in a tougher cake.
Baking the cake in a cold oven allows for a more even rise and prevents the edges from browning too quickly.
If the cake starts to brown too much during baking, tent it loosely with foil.
For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of lemon or orange zest to the batter.
