BUTTERMILK-POPPY SEED SKILLET CAKE WITH STRAWBERRIES



Buttermilk-Poppy Seed Skillet Cake with Strawberries image

This cake was born out of the need to use up some extra buttermilk and strawberries before they went bad. You can make this in a 9-inch cake pan instead of a skillet, if desired.

Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup unsalted butter
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1 ½ tablespoons poppy seeds
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
1 ½ cups buttermilk, at room temperature
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups strawberries, hulled and halved

Steps:

  • Place butter into a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Place skillet into an oven and turn on to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) to allow butter to melt, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • While butter melts, mix together flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cardamom in a large bowl.
  • When butter has fully melted, remove skillet from oven and gently swirl to coat bottom with butter. Pour melted butter over the dry ingredients, and set skillet aside. Stir melted butter into dry ingredients a few times to allow it to cool slightly. Add buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, and almond extracts and mix just until batter has no dry clumps of flour in it.
  • Pour batter into the skillet and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle halved strawberries evenly over the top and place skillet into the oven.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs, 55 to 60 minutes. If cake begins to over-brown at any point during baking process, turn the oven temperature down to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and continue to bake until done (baking time will vary with a lower oven temperature). Allow cake to cool before slicing.

OLD-FASHIONED STRAWBERRY CAKE



Old-Fashioned Strawberry Cake image

If strawberry doughnuts are your thing, then this cake is absolutely your thing. A classic, old-fashioned buttermilk cake with bits of berries strewn throughout, it manages to taste just like your favorite fried treat (without the frying, of course). Be sure to bake the cake all the way through; strawberries have a high water content and tend to make for a soggy cake if not baked properly. The top should be crackly, deeply and perfectly golden brown, and the edges should pull away from the sides of the pan.

Time 45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), softened, plus more for pan
2 cups/255 grams all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup/70 grams granulated sugar
1/3 cup/75 grams light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3/4 cup/180 milliliters buttermilk
10 ounces/190 grams strawberries, hulled and sliced 1/4-inch thick
3 tablespoons demerara sugar, for sprinkling (you can use granulated sugar in a pinch)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Smear or brush a bit of butter onto the bottom of a 9-inch cake pan and line with parchment paper (either cut to fit the bottom, or leaving some hanging over the edges for easy removal).
  • Whisk flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl.
  • In a stand mixer (or using an electric hand mixer and a large bowl), beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla together on medium-high, periodically scraping down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything incorporates, until the mixture is pale, light, fluffy and creamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating to blend between additions. (This is a good time to scrape down the sides again.)
  • Reduce the mixer speed to low and carefully add half the flour mixture, followed by half the buttermilk. Repeat with remaining flour mixture and buttermilk, beating just until no large lumps remain.
  • Using a spatula, gently fold in half the strawberries and transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan. Scatter with remaining strawberries and sprinkle with demerara sugar.
  • Bake until cake is puffed, deeply golden brown on the top and pulling away at the sides, 45 to 50 minutes. (It should spring back slightly when pressed in the center and appear fully baked where the strawberries meet the cake.)
  • Let cake cool completely before removing it from the pan (either by inverting or lifting with the parchment lining). The cake can be baked up to three days ahead and stored tightly wrapped at room temperature, or refrigerated.

Tips:

  • Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Make sure the buttermilk is at room temperature before using it. This will help the batter to mix together smoothly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Cook the cake over medium-low heat. This will help to prevent the cake from burning.
  • Serve the cake warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

This buttermilk strawberry skillet cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, and the strawberries add a sweet and tart flavor. The cake is also very versatile, and you can easily add other ingredients to it, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit.
