1
Prepare Vanilla Beans
Split the vanilla beans lengthwise with a sharp knife and scrape out the seeds using the back of the knife. Set both the seeds and the pods aside.
2
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

3
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
4
Cream Butter and Sugar
In another bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
5
Add Eggs
Add the eggs one at a time to the creamed mixture, mixing well after each addition.
6
Incorporate Vanilla
Add the scraped vanilla seeds and vanilla extract to the mixture and combine thoroughly.
7
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.

8
Pour into Baking Dish
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
9
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
10
Cool
Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
