GRANDMA'S BLACKBERRY CAKE



Grandma's Blackberry Cake image

I remember going berry picking with Mom and Grandma. Even at 70 years old, Grandma could pick 3 gallons of berries before I had my pail half full. Grandma made up this blackberry cake recipe with her mom, and it's been passed down for five generations now. -Diana Martin, Moundsville, West Virginia

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 c unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan and parchment
2 1/3 c cake flour (sifted, then measured) plus more for pan
2 1/2 c fresh blackberries
1/4 c plus 1 1/3 cups sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
3 large eggs, room temperature
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp finely grated orange zest
1 c well-shaken buttermilk

Steps:

  • 1. Position a rack in middle of oven and preheat to 350°. Butter pan; line bottom with a round of parchment paper. Butter parchment. Dust with flour; tap out excess. Arrange berries in a single layer in bottom of pan; sprinkle evenly with 1/4 cup sugar.

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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe blackberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To keep the cake moist, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for up to 2 months.
  • This cake is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with a dollop of whipped cream, a scoop of ice cream, or a drizzle of honey.

Conclusion:

Blackberry buttermilk cake is a classic Southern dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a moist, flavorful cake with a delicious blackberry filling.
