In a bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tsps baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt
Into a large bowl, add the butter, white sugar, and lemon zest. Mix on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
1/3 cup unsalted butter, 1 tsp lemon zest, 3/4 cups white sugar
Add in the egg and continue mixing for another minute until well combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
1 large egg
Now we're going to alternate adding in the dry and wet ingredients. Starting off with the dry, add in about 1/3 of it, and mix on medium speed just until combined.
1/2 cup milk, 1 tbsp vanilla
Add in about 1/2 of the wet ingredients, and mix until just combined. Continue this process until a thick batter has formed. It should go dry-wet-dry-wet-dry.
