Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
• In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until fluffy.
• Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the lemon juice.
• In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture alternating with buttermilk.
• Fold in the sliced strawberries gently until just combined.
• Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
