Instructions

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the cake layers later.

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This ensures an even distribution of the leavening agents, leading to a well-risen cake.
