BLUEBERRY-LIME BUTTERMILK UPSIDE DOWN CAKE



Blueberry-Lime Buttermilk Upside Down Cake image

I came up with this cake to use up little bits of things I had laying around: blueberries, white chocolate, buttermilk and limes. And I gotta say, I love this cake. A hint of buttermilk and white chocolate in the light cake with a crispy crusty "bottom", enriched with an sweet and sticky brown sugar-blueberry-lime "top." If you are not a huge fan of very sweet desserts, you may want to reduce the brown sugar in the topping to 1/2 cup or so. It is phenomenal served with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream!

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces
2/3 cup light brown sugar, tightly packed
2 cups fresh blueberries
2 teaspoons lime zest, grated
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup buttermilk (or sour milk-I have used sour milk made with 1/2 t lime juice for extra lime flavor)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 ounces white chocolate, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a 9 inch cast iron skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the brown sugar and cook, stirring, until the mixture is smooth and bubbling, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and arrange the blueberries evenly over the brown sugar mixture. Scatter the lime zest over the blueberries.
  • .
  • Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together in a small bowl, set aside. Mix buttermilk with baking soda and stir to combine (may foam up), set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter until creamy using a medium speed on your mixer, about 30 seconds. Add the sugar and continue to beat until the mixture is light in texture, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Beat in the vanilla and white chocolate.
  • On low speed, beat in half the flour mixture until just combined. Scrape down the bowl and beat in the buttermilk. Beat in the remaining flour mixture until just combined.
  • Spoon batter over the topping in the cake pan, spreading it evenly over the berries until they are completely covered.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 45-50 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 5 minutes.
  • Run a knife around the edge of the cake to release it from the sides of the pan. Invert a serving plate over the cake and turn the cake out onto the plate.
  • Let cool 30 minutes before serving plain or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

1/2 cup buttermilk, plus
2 tablespoons buttermilk
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/4 cup sugar

2 tablespoons corn syrup
2 cups blueberries

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and fresh blueberries: This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your cake.
  • Use a good-quality butter: This will also contribute to the cake's flavor and richness.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Gently fold in the dry ingredients: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake.
  • Pour the batter over the blueberry mixture: Be careful not to overfill the pan, as the cake will rise during baking.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: The cake should be golden brown on top.
  • Let the cake cool for a few minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate: This will help to prevent the blueberries from sticking to the pan.
  • Serve the cake warm or at room temperature: It can be topped with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries.
