BERRY BUTTERMILK CAKE



Berry Buttermilk Cake image

Buttermilk makes this stir-together cake super tender, but you can use any milk you have in its place. Same goes for the fruit: Use your favorite frozen berries, or a combination, but frozen cherries, mango or peaches work as well. Just cut any big fruit pieces into bite-size pieces before folding into the batter. And if you do happen to have fresh summer fruit around, that'll work, too.

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 (9-inch) square or round cake

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup/120 milliliters vegetable oil or other neutral oil, plus more for greasing the pan
1/2 cup/120 milliliters buttermilk or milk
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup/200 grams plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups/190 grams plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 (10-ounce/285-gram) bag frozen berries (about 2 cups), any kind, any combination (large berries quartered)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 9-inch baking dish or pan (square or round is OK) with oil and line with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup oil, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla and 1 cup sugar. In a separate medium bowl, whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, the baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine. Whisk wet ingredients into dry until just combined. (Some small lumps are fine.) Toss berries on a plate with remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Fold into batter and transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  • Sprinkle evenly with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 53 to 58 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. Cake will keep, loosely wrapped at room temperature, for about 4 days.

BUTTERMILK MANGO-BERRY CRUMB CAKE



Buttermilk Mango-Berry Crumb Cake image

I came up with this recipe as I was trying to find a way to use up some buttermilk, mango and raspberries I didn't want to go to waste! Feel free to substitute other fruits such as blueberries, peaches, apples or strawberries. No fruit on hand? This is just as delicious without!

Time 1h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

½ cup flour
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup butter, softened
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup buttermilk
1 mango - peeled, seeded and diced
1 cup raspberries

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan.
  • Mix 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter, and cinnamon together in a bowl until the mixture is the consistency of wet sand. Set the topping aside.
  • Beat 1/2 cup butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the egg and mix well. Stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, combine 2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg.
  • Mix the flour mixture into the creamed butter mixture alternately with the buttermilk, stirring just to combine. After the last of the flour mixture is incorporated, gently fold in the diced mango and raspberries. Spread the batter into the prepared pan (the batter will be thick). Sprinkle with crumb topping.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

TRIPLE BERRY SUMMER BUTTERMILK BUNDT CAKE



Triple Berry Summer Buttermilk Bundt Cake image

This recipe came from SmittenKitchen.com, one of my favourite food blogs... and she's adapted it from Rustic Fruit Desserts. All I know is that it's delicious! It's the perfect summer cake, a light tasting lemon-kissed, berry wonder - the perfect use for the plentiful berries available this time of year. Make it for dessert, and enjoy it for breakfast the next day. Use fresh berries when available, frozen are ok, too. Feel free to use whatever berries are in season, or whichever you prefer. When I made it, I left the glaze off, and sprinkled it lightly with powdered sugar. Delish.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 Bundt Cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt or 1 teaspoon table salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
1 lemon, zest of
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc)
2 cups powdered sugar
1 lemon, juice of
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, very, very soft

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F Generously grease a 10-cup Bundt pan, either with butter or a nonstick spray.* Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk or sift 2 1/2 cups flour, baking powder and salt together and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer or large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and lemon zest until light and impossibly fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Then, with the mixer on a low speed, add your eggs one at a time, scraping down the bowl between each addition. Beat in vanilla, briefly. Add 1/3 flour mixture to batter, beating until just combined, followed by half the buttermilk, another 1/3 of the flour mixture, the remaining buttermilk and remaining flour mixture. Scrape down from time to time and don't mix any more than you need to. In the bowl where you'd mixed your dry ingredients, toss the berries with the 2 tablespoons of flour. With a silicon spatula, gently fold the berries into the cake batter. The batter will be very thick and this will seem impossible without squishing the berries a little, but just do your best and remember that squished berries do indeed make for a pretty batter.
  • Spread cake batter - you might find it easier to plop it in the pan in large spoonfuls, because it's so thick - in the prepared baking pan and spread the top smooth. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, rotating the cake 180 degrees after 30 (to make sure it browns evenly). The cake is done as soon as a tester comes out clean of batter. At 10 minutes before my baking time was up, a tester was totally wet with batter and I was certain it would never be done in the estimated time. 7 minutes later, the same tester was clean as a whistle, so fret not.
  • Set cake pan on a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes, before inverting the cake onto a serving platter to cool the rest of the way. Cool completely. Once cool, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice and butter until smooth and very, very thick. (If you'd like it thinner, add more juice, but I like the thick drippiness of it, seen above.) Spread carefully over top of cake, letting it trickle down the sides when and where it wishes. Serve at once or keep it covered at room temperature for 3 to 4 days.
  • *Note: If you have a nonstick Bundt, just a coat of butter or nonstick spray should do. However, if you have a regular Bundt, not nonstick coated, you're really going to want to make sure every nook and cranny is well-coated with butter or even shortening (the solidity of both helps them stick to the cake walls), and then dust the inside with flour. Setting your cake pan in the fridge or freezer (to set the coating even further) while you make the cake batter will provide even more insurance.

BERRY & BUTTERMILK CAKE

Another from Tessa Kiros' lovely book, "Apples for Jam". I haven't yet tried it, but love using buttermilk and expect it won't be long until I do! Any fresh berries will do - Tessa says frozen ones tend to be a bit too mushy and will collapse.
