  • For a boozy cake, soak the dried apricots in brandy before adding them to the batter.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • For a gluten-free cake, use a gluten-free flour blend.
