French Strawberry Cake image

Reminiscent of a ladyfinger cake, this is a deliciously light cake that is not all that sweet and is best made with fresh, ripe strawberries. Decorate with additional strawberries.

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

cooking spray
1 ¼ cups white sugar, divided
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup sour cream
1 (16 ounce) package fresh strawberries, stemmed and halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray.
  • Whip together 1 cup sugar and butter using an electric mixer in a mixing bowl until pale and fluffy, 5 to 7 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture, and beating just until combined after each addition. Fold in strawberries.
  • Spread batter into the prepared cake pan. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup sugar evenly over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
