STRAWBERRY BUTTERMILK CAKE
I made this as a breakfast cake but it is so good that my family eats it for dessert. I baked mine in a cast iron skillet but a springform pan will also work.

SKILLET STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE
Fresh strawberries are one of the sweetest harbingers of spring and summer. And strawberry shortcakes are most assuredly one of the best ways to celebrate the arrival of warmer, sunnier days. Of course, the petite, layered berry-biscuit stacks aren't exactly fuss-free. This impressive skillet strawberry shortcake recipe eliminates much of the hassle and mess of traditional strawberry shortcakes. Instead of flouring the counter and rolling and cutting out individual biscuits, you'll bake one giant skillet biscuit cake that's topped with macerated strawberries and whipped cream.

- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet; line the bottom with a round of parchment paper.
- Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for shortcake together in a large mixing bowl. Whisk buttermilk, egg yolk, and vanilla together in a glass measuring cup until evenly combined; set aside.

- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and baked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes.
- To prepare the topping, stir together the quartered strawberries, sugar, and lemon zest in a medium mixing bowl to macerate.

Steps:
- For the buttermilk strawberry skillet cake: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and dust with flour. Beat the butter and 3/4 cup of the sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed. Beat in the vanilla and egg. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl until combined. With the mixer running, add about a third of the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, then add about half of the buttermilk. Continue adding the flour and buttermilk in this manner, ending with the flour, mixing just until the batter comes together. Pour the batter into the prepared skillet and smooth the top. Place the strawberries on top of the cake batter, pressing down gently. Sprinkle the remaining 2 teaspoons sugar over top. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly. For the strawberry whipped cream: Place a mixing bowl and whisk attachment into the freezer 15 minutes prior to using. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the cold whisk attachment, whip the cream until soft peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the jam and vanilla and continue whipping until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes more. (If not using immediately, cover and refrigerate.) Serve the cake with the whipped cream and Jerry's Sugared Pecans. Jerry's Sugared Pecans: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with sides with aluminum foil. Pour the melted butter onto the lined sheet. In a large bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon and egg whites. Add the pecan halves and toss until they are fully coated. Spread the pecans onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring the pecans every 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries. If you can't find fresh strawberries, frozen strawberries will also work.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- Be sure to grease and flour the skillet before adding the batter. This will help prevent the cake from sticking.
- Cook the cake over medium-low heat. This will help prevent the cake from burning.
- When the cake is done, let it cool for a few minutes before inverting it onto a plate.
- Serve the cake warm with strawberry whipped cream and Jerry's Sugared Pecans.
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 strawberry whipped cream and Jerry's Sugared Pecans add a delicious touch. This cake is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
