Nothing says summer like fresh berries! This year began with strawberries which I turned in jam and syrup. Raspberries and blackberries followed and we just ate them fresh except for the occasional cake. The blueberries are still plentiful and sweet - and except for the one time I make a fresh blueberry sauce for pancakes, we are eating them fresh too. I plan to share the berry recipes from this year starting with this wonderfully light and airy Fresh Raspberry Cake with I baked using Gluten Free Flour. Needless to say, this wonderful cake is eggless too!
Ingredients:
11/4 cup gluten free flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup yogurt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
1 cup fresh raspberries
Method:
- Wash the raspberries and set them aside to drain.
- Sift all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Stir using a spatula and mix until blended.
- In a separate mixing bowl, blend together all the wet ingredients.
- Now slowly pour the dry ingredients into the wet.
- Using a spatula bring all ingredients together to make a smooth batter.
- Fold in the fresh raspberries.
- Pour this batter into a prepared loaf pan.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350F for 40-45 minutes.
- Do a toothpick test to ensure the cake is baked through.
- Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Turn the cake out from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
Good to Know
- I used King Arthur's Measure for Measure, 1 to 1 Gluten Free Flour.
- If the raspberries are still carrying water after they have been drained, place them on triple folded kitchen paper. Let them sit on this for 5-10 minutes. This will help remove any excess water and leave the berries intact.
