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

Yield Makes one 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 12

Granulated sugar, for pan
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan, plus 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) cut into pieces
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
1/2 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
4 McIntosh apples (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled, cored, and cut into 8 wedges
1 cup (1/2 pint) blackberries
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9-inch springform pan, and dust with granulated sugar. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together melted butter, 3/4 cup brown sugar, the milk, and eggs in another bowl. Whisk into flour mixture.
  • Spread batter evenly into prepared pan. Arrange apple wedges over batter, and sprinkle with blackberries. Gently press fruit into batter. Combine remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and the cinnamon, and sprinkle over fruit. Dot with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Bake until top is dark gold, apples are tender, and a cake tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Let cool. Serve with whipped cream if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, juicy blackberries. This will ensure that your shortcake has the best flavor.
  • Toast the walnuts before using them. This will bring out their nutty flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the apples. This will help to prevent them from browning.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the shortcake tough.
  • Bake the shortcake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that it is cooked through.
  • Serve the shortcake warm with whipped cream or ice cream. This will make it extra delicious.
