BLUEBERRY POPPY SEED CAKE



Blueberry Poppy Seed Cake image

This simple one-bowl recipe highlights blueberries and poppy seeds in a fluffy vanilla- and almond-scented batter that comes together in a flash. It travels well, which makes it a perfect picnic dessert or beach snack, and it's just as good for breakfast the next day. The combination of butter and oil gives the cake great flavor, but, more important, keeps it moist for days on the counter. For those who are not fans of almond extract, feel free to leave it out and replace it with more vanilla extract.

BLUEBERRY POPPY SEED BRUNCH CAKE



Blueberry Poppy Seed Brunch Cake image

This recipe was brought to The Times in a 1990 article by Marian Burros about the 34th Pillsbury Bake-Off, the Super Bowl of baking contests, and its winners. Linda Rahman of Petaluma, Calif., who won the grand prize, was certain her cake was ''too ordinary to win anything," but it was the judges' unanimous choice because, they said, it was "light, refreshing and satisfying." We still agree.

Tips:

  • When selecting potatoes, choose firm, unblemished ones that are similar in size for even cooking.
  • To ensure the potatoes are fully cooked, pierce them with a fork or knife. If it slides through easily, they are done.
  • For a crispier crust, pan-fry the potato cakes over medium-high heat until golden brown on both sides.
  • If you prefer a softer texture, bake the potato cakes in a preheated oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve the potato cakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.
