I'm posting this recipe again because it's strawberry season. I found this recipe on onceuponachef.com one day while I was looking for recipes for strawberries. I had gotten some nice ones on sale and wanted to make something fun and easy with it. This was a good choice. Of course, mine did not look like the one on the website, but still it was pretty good and I plan on making it again. Enjoy!
Easy Strawberry Cake
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
6 Tbsps unsalted butter, softened
1 cup plus 2 Tbsps sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
3/4 pound of strawberries, hulled and cut in half
Preheat oven to 350 and grease one 9" deep dish pie pan
Whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside
In another bowl, beat the butter and 1 cup of sugar until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat on low until well combined. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk, beating on low speed until smooth.
Pour into pie pan and smooth out with spatula. Arrange strawberries on top, cut side down, covering the entire top of the cake. Sprinkle the 2 Tbsp of sugar over the strawberries.
Bake at 350 for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 325 and bake approximately an hour or until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool on wire rack.
Enjoy!
