BLUEBERRY AND PEACH CAKE

5.7.16


Ingredients for the topping:

  • ½ cup of all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup of brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons of sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup of unsalted butter

MAKE THE TOPPING

  • With an electric mixer, combine the flour, sugars, cinnamon, and salt on low speed until well combined, about 45 seconds. 

  • Add the butter and continue to mix on low speed until everything is well mixed.
  •  Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.



INGREDIENTS FOR THE CAKE
  • 1½ cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1½ teaspoons of baking powder
  • 10 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • ⅔ cup of sugar
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • 1½ teaspoons of vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cups of fresh blueberries
  • 1 cups of chopped fresh peaches




MAKE THE CAKE
  • Preheat the oven to 180C. Grease the cake pan with butter and after put some flour inside and spread it all over the cake pan.

  •  In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder, set aside.
  • Using an electric mixer, cream together the butter, sugar and salt at medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
  • Add the vanilla and beat until combined, about 30 seconds. 
  •  Add the eggs one at a time, beat for 5 to 10 seconds, until fully incorporated.
  • Gradually add the flour mixture and beat until the flour is almost fully incorporated, about 20 seconds. 


  • Using the rubber spatula, gently mix the blueberries and peaches.

  •  Transfer mix to prepared pan, use an offset spatula to gently spread the mix evenly to the pan edges and smooth the surface. 
  • Squeeze a handful of the topping in your hand to form a large cohesive clump, break up the clump with your fingers and sprinkle over the mix
  •  Bake until the top is deep golden brown and a thin knife inserted into center of the cake comes out clean, about 55 minutes.
  •  Run a thin knife around the sides of cake. Invert the cake, then peel off the parchment from the bottom of the cake and discard. Turn the cake right-side-up onto a cooling rack or serving dish. Allow to cool for at least 1 hour. Serve warm or at room temperature.

And xtarammm this was the final result..... :)

This is a pretty easy recipe and very good for summer because it has fruits, so it doesn't make the cake so sweet :)

If you try it, please let me know if you liked it ;)
