    Add the eggs one at a time (scraping the bottom of the bowl as needed) followed by the vanilla, and then the buttermilk.
  5. 5
    Whisk together the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder), then add them all at once to the wet ingredients and mix until everything is combined, scraping down once or twice.
