Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Brush an 8-inch square baking dish with melted butter. In a bowl, whisk together flour, salt and baking powder. Set this aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together melted butter and ¾ cup sugar using a hand whisk. Then beat in the egg, milk, and vanilla extract. Beat just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Add the flour mixture and using a spatula or a whisk, incorporate the ingredients gently. Fold in half of the berries to the batter gently, then pour it into the prepared baking dish.
  • Top the batter with the remaining berries, placing them in a single layer over the cake. Sprinkle the reserved sugar all over the top. Bake the berry cake at 350 F for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick tester comes out clean.
  • Serve the cake warm, topped with ice cream if desired. To store leftovers, cover the cake and place it in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

Recipe adapted from The Pioneer Woman's Blackberry Cobbler. You can use frozen berries but make sure to thaw it well. Cut big chunks of fruit if needed.
