Equipment

  • stand mixer
  • Bundt cake pan

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces unsalted butter divided
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour divided
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries trimmed and diced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Place 2 sticks of the unsalted butter in the bowl of a stand mixer. Let everything sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon unsalted butter and brush it on the inside of a 12-cup bundt cake pan. Trim and dice 1 pound strawberries.
  • Combine 3 cups flour, kosher salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a large bowl and whisk together.
  • Add 2 cups granulated sugar to the butter and beat until fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Add vanilla extract.
  • With the mixer on low, add ⅓ of the flour mixture, then ½ of the sour cream in alternating additions.
  • Gently fold in the strawberries by hand. Scrape batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for about 1 hour until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 30 minutes, then invert onto a rack to cool completely.
  • Whisk powdered sugar and lemon juice together and drizzle over the cooled cake.
