Start by sifting cake flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. While using a stand mixer, add butter, canola oil, and sugar. Make sure to mix well! Next, add four eggs one at a time and continue mixing thoroughly.
In a separate bowl, add milk, sour cream, vanilla extract, butter extract, and almond extract. Whisk them together, then combine the wet and dry ingredients.
Spread the mixture evenly into a greased bundt pan. Then, bake it in the oven for an hour and ten minutes at 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
For the praline topping, add evaporated milk, sugar, salt, and butter into a pot with the heat on medium and stir until it is simmering. Once it simmers, toss in some pecans and vanilla extract. Keep stirring for another five minutes after that.
Finally, pour the praline topping over the pound cake and enjoy! Before diving in, allow the cake to sit for about an hour so that it’s pleasantly moist and delicious when you cut into it.
