Steps:
- Make cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Line bottom of a buttered 9- by 2-inch round cake pan with a round of wax paper, then butter paper.
- Sift together flour, baking powder and soda, and salt. Beat together butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy, then beat in vanilla. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, then, with mixer at low speed, beat in all of buttermilk until just combined. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, mixing after each addition until just combined.
- Spoon batter into cake pan, smoothing top, and bake in middle of oven until golden and a tester comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool in pan on a rack 10 minutes, then run a thin sharp knife around edge of cake to loosen. Invert onto rack, then slide cake onto a cake plate.
- Make topping:
- Bring wine, 3 tablespoons sugar, and zest to a boil in a small heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil until syrup is reduced to about 2/3 cup, 1 to 2 minutes. Discard zest.
- Reserve 2 tablespoons syrup and pour remainder slowly and evenly over cake (cake will absorb syrup).
- Stir together reserved syrup, preserves, and remaining tablespoon sugar in small saucepan and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 1 minute (it should be the consistency of a thick syrup). Put blackberries in a large bowl, then pour preserves mixture over berries. Gently stir berries with a rubber spatula to coat, then pour over cake, mounding blackberries on top.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.

BERRY BUTTERMILK CAKE
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.

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.
Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cake batter to come together smoothly and evenly.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Overmixing will result in a tough, dense cake.
- Fold in the blackberries gently. Over-mixing will cause the berries to break down and bleed into the batter, resulting in a less-than-appealing appearance.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time will vary depending on the size and shape of the cake pan.
Conclusion:
This buttermilk cake with blackberries is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and tender, with a sweet and tangy flavor that is perfectly complemented by the juicy blackberries. Whether you are serving it for a special occasion or simply enjoying it as a snack, this cake is sure to be a hit. Additional Tips:
- For a more intense blackberry flavor, use fresh blackberries instead of frozen.
- 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.
- This cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
