What’s the secret ingredient to these irresistible cakes? Leftover buttermilk! Instead of letting your half-full carton go bad, try whipping up a classic dessert (like this vibrant Strawberry Shortcake or this zesty Lemon Bundt), moist coffee cake (this Blueberry Buttermilk Coffee Cake will become a fast favorite), or indulgent red velvet treat (this Southern Red Velvet Cake is practically sinful, and Chef John’s Red Velvet Cupcakes are perfect for any celebration). No matter what you’re in the mood for, you’ll find it here in this collection of buttermilk cakes.
