Time 1h10m

Yield 12 to 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut into ½-inch chunks
2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon packed lemon zest, from 1 lemon
½ cup milk
2 cups fresh blueberries (frozen may be used but do not defrost)

Steps:

  • Make the streusel topping: Combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl. Using your fingers, mix until no lumps of brown sugar remain. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until it reaches a crumbly state. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-inch square pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl and beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract and lemon zest.
  • Gradually add the flour mixture, alternating with the milk, beating on low speed to combine. Add the berries to the batter and fold gently with a spatula until evenly distributed. Do not over-mix.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until golden brown around the edges and a cake tester comes out clean. Let cool in the pan on a rack for about 20 minutes, then serve right from the pan.
  • This cake is best served on the day it is made. Leftovers will keep well for a few days wrapped in foil and stored at room temperature.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cake can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, double-wrap it securely with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap, or place it in heavy-duty freezer bag. Thaw overnight on the countertop before serving.

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.

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
  • To make the streusel topping extra crunchy, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
