Time 1h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the skillet
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup granulated sugar
Finely grated zest of 1 large lemon
1 large egg
1/2 cup whole milk
3 cups fresh berries, such as blueberries, blackberries and quartered (hulled) strawberries
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch of ground ginger
Pinch of kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and at room temperature
Vanilla (or other flavored) ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 10-inch cast-iron skillet.
  • For the cake batter: Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl until combined. Beat the butter, granulated sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually beat in the milk (it's okay if the mixture looks curdled). Add the flour mixture and beat, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula, until smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in the mixed berries until evenly distributed, then spread the batter into the prepared cast iron skillet; set aside.
  • For the crumb topping: Stir together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, nutmeg, ginger and salt in a small bowl until combined. Work in the butter with your fingers until the entire mixture is moistened and clumpy. Scatter evenly over the batter.
  • Bake until the top is golden and set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Transfer the skillet to a wire rack and let cool at least 30 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature with ice cream.

2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup (5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pan
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

2 cups strawberries, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Partially Poached Rhubarb, recipe follows, drained
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving, optional
2 cups chopped rhubarb (1/2-inch pieces)
1 cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • For the crumble topping: Combine the granulated sugar, flour and cinnamon in a bowl and mix to combine. Add the butter and cut in with a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture is crumbly in texture. Set aside.
  • For the strawberry-rhubarb buckle: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan or round cake pan with butter.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the butter and granulated and brown sugars. Mix on medium speed until well creamed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and mix until fully incorporated. Add the lemon zest and vanilla extract. Continue to mix until well blended, about 1 minute.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg and whisk to blend. Turn the mixer to low and slowly add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Fold the strawberries and Partially Poached Rhubarb into the batter with a rubber spatula.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Top with the crumble topping. Bake until the crumble is golden brown and the cake is cooked through, 40 to 50 minutes. Allow the cake to cool to room temperature.
  • Remove the cake from the pan and transfer to a serving plate. Slice and serve topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
  • Combine the rhubarb, granulated sugar and 1 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Once it reaches a boil, remove from the heat and let cool in the pan with the juices, about 45 minutes.

SUMMER BERRY BUCKLE



Summer Berry Buckle image

Softer and more fruit-filled than a coffeecake, but with a higher percentage of buttery batter than a cobbler, buckles are harder to classify than they are to make. This one is tender, moist and filled with sweet summer berries. But feel free to substitute any other juicy fruit that you like: peaches, nectarines, figs, plums or pineapple. If your fruit is very sweet (figs, pineapple), reduce the sugar by a couple of tablespoons, while tart fruit (plums or tart blackberries) may need an extra tablespoon. Buckles are best eaten on the same day they are baked. But since they come together so quickly, you don't have to plan ahead.
