kcalIngredients
- For the Topping:
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick) 🧈
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 cup pecans, halved 🌰
- For the Cake:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 🍞
1 tsp baking powder 🥄
1/2 tsp baking soda 🥄
1/4 tsp salt 🧂
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened 🧈
1 cup granulated sugar 🍚
2 large eggs 🥚
1 tsp vanilla extract 🌟
1/2 cup buttermilk 🥛
Directions
- Prepare the Topping: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the 1/2 cup of butter and stir in brown sugar. Cook until bubbly, then remove from heat and pour into a 9-inch round cake pan. Arrange pecans evenly over the sugar mixture. 🌰✨
- Make the Cake Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Alternate adding the flour mixture and buttermilk until just combined.
- Assemble the Cake: Pour the cake batter over the pecan topping in the cake pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Flip: Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then carefully invert onto a serving plate. Remove the pan and let cool completely before serving. Enjoy! 🍰❤️
