Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking pans by greasing them lightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, Instant Clearjel or pudding mix, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, combine buttermilk, water, vanilla extract, sugar, butter, eggs, and vegetable oil; whisk until smooth.
Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between prepared pans and bake for about 28 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool layers in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Prepare strawberry compote while cakes cool by cooking strawberries with sugar until syrupy.
Assemble the cake by layering with strawberry compote and buttercream frosting between each layer.
