CREAM CAKE WITH FRESH FRUIT



Cream Cake with Fresh Fruit image

I first learned about this simple method from an old church cookbook my grandma had. Instead of butter or oil, this cake uses heavy cream as both the fat and liquid in the batter. It may sound decadent, but the result is similar to pound cake in texture: a dense, moist interior crumb structure. Best of all, it's super simple to make. I love it paired with lightly sweetened fresh fruit.

Time 2h45m

Yield 10 to 12 servings (one 9-inch cake)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
5 large eggs, at room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Turbinado or sanding sugar, for sprinkling
2 heaping cups fruit, such as stone fruit or berries, prepared as needed (seeds or pits removed, peeled if desired, chopped if large, left whole if small)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt to combine.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the eggs and granulated sugar on low speed to thoroughly combine, about 1 minute. Raise the speed and whip until the mixture becomes pale and thick, 5 to 6 minutes. With the mixer running on low speed, add the cream in a slow, steady stream and mix to thoroughly combine. Add the vanilla and mix to combine.
  • Add the flour mixture in 2 to 3 additions, mixing well to fully and smoothly combine. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer, then sprinkle generously with turbinado or sanding sugar.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (or with a few moist crumbs), 65 to 75 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool the cake completely in the pan.
  • For the fruit: Combine the fruit and granulated sugar in a medium bowl and toss well to combine. Macerate at room temperature, stirring occasionally, for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours before serving.
  • To unmold the cooled cake, run a small offset spatula around the outside edge, then release the outer ring of the pan. Slide an offset spatula under the cake all the way around and gently transfer to a serving platter. Serve slices of cake with a spoonful or two of fruit and their juices.

Provided by Vanias

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Peach Dessert Recipes

Time 1h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 egg whites
6 tablespoons water
2 cups white sugar
4 egg yolks
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
½ cup water
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3 egg yolks
¾ cup sliced strawberries
¾ cup sliced peaches
½ cup blueberries
2 cups whipped cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 10 inch round cake pan.
  • Combine the egg whites and water in a large glass or metal bowl. Whip the egg whites to soft peaks in a large bowl. Continue to whip, while gradually adding sugar until egg whites can stand in stiff peaks. Continue to whip on medium speed while adding one egg yolk at a time. Combine the flour and baking powder; fold gently into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Stir the cornstarch with the water in a small bowl to dissolve and set aside. In a medium saucepan, beat together the sweetened condensed milk and the egg yolks. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in the cornstarch mixture. When the filling thickens, remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  • Mix together the strawberries, peaches, and blueberries in a medium bowl. Using a thread or a bread knife, slice the cooled cake in half horizontally. Spread the mixed fruit across the bottom half of the cake, pour any fruit juice over the berries to moisten the cake. Spread the cream filling over the top of the fruit. Top with the other half of the cake. Frost the cake with whipped cream or your favorite white frosting.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemons provide the best flavor for this cake. If you can, use organic lemons to avoid any pesticides or chemicals.
  • Zest the lemons before juicing them: This will help to release the essential oils from the lemons, which will give the cake a more intense flavor.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the cake, making it lighter and more tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time: This will help to prevent the cake from curdling.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Use a variety of fresh fruits for the topping: This will add color and flavor to the cake.

Conclusion:

This fluted lemon cake with fresh fruit is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its zesty lemon flavor and sweet fruit topping, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
