Apricot Butter Cake Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

Gradually mix in the flour mixture, alternating with the milk.

Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.

Spoon the apricot jam over the batter, then top with the remaining batter.

Use a knife to swirl the jam into the batter.

Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve the apricot butter cake sliced and enjoy!
