Cook Mode(Keep screen awake)

Ingredients

¾cupfat-free milk

¼cupbutter

1vanilla bean

3eggs, room temperature

1 ¼cupssugar (see Tip)

1 ½cupsall-purpose flour

1 ½teaspoonsbaking powder

¼teaspoonsalt

1 ½teaspoonsvanilla extract

Directions

In a small saucepan, combine milk and butter. Using a small sharp knife, split the vanilla bean lengthwise in half. Scrape the seeds from the halves into the milk mixture. Add vanilla bean halves to the saucepan. Heat over medium heat until butter is melted and milk is steaming, stirring occasionally (do not boil). Remove from heat.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Meanwhile, lightly grease the bottoms of two 8-inch round cake pans. Line bottoms of pans with waxed paper or parchment paper; grease and lightly flour pans. In a large bowl, beat eggs with a mixer on high about 4 minutes or until thickened and light yellow in color. Gradually add sugar, beating on medium speed for 4 to 5 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat on low to medium just until combined.

Remove the vanilla bean halves from the milk mixture; discard. Add milk mixture to batter along with the vanilla extract, beating until combined. Divide batter between prepared pans, spreading evenly.

Bake about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near centers comes out clean. Cool cake layers in pans for 10 minutes. Remove layers from pans; cool on wire racks.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
