- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1/2 cup melted butter or vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract for flavor
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Optional Add-ins:

Instructions
Preheat and Prep:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9x13-inch sheet pan or line it with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Sift to remove lumps.
Blend Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, beat eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add kefir, melted butter, and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
Combine Batter:
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake airy.
- If adding extras like berries or chocolate chips, fold them in gently.
Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared sheet pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve:
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar or add your favorite topping before serving.
