Baking Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (conventional).
  2. Sift together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a bowl and mix. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, oil, and melted butter for 1-2 minutes until it starts to change color. Add the eggs, egg white, and vanilla, then whisk for another 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add a third of the buttermilk to the wet ingredients and whisk to combine. Then add a third of the dry ingredients and gently fold with a rubber spatula until mixed. Repeat until fully combined.
  5. Prep a bundt pan by generously brushing with oil and dusting with granulated sugar. Pour the batter into the pan.
  6. Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs attached.
  7. Let the cake rest in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then carefully turn it out onto a serving dish.
  8. Dust with powdered sugar and serve!
