Anytime Berry Cake Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter

  softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar

  plus 2 tablespoons
• 1 lemon

  zested and 1 tablespoon juice
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 350℉ and coat a 9-inch round cake pan (or springform pan)
  with cooking spray and set aside.
• 2 Cream the butter, 1 cup sugar, and lemon zest together using a stand mixer or
  with an electric mixer until the batter is very pale in color and fluffy in
  texture; about 5 minutes.
• 3 Add the eggs, one at time, and mix until incorporated after each egg. Then beat
  in the vanilla and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
• 4 In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the
  dry ingredients to the batter until just combined.
• 5 Gently fold in the berries using a rubber spatula until just combined and
  transfer to the prepared cake pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until lightly
  browned and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean.
• 6 Let the cake cool in the pan before slicing and serving. To serve, top with
  whipped cream and additional fresh berries, or dusted with powdered sugar.
