Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2/3 cup sugar plus 1 1/2 tablespoons
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk room temperature
  • 1 1/4 cups blackberries
  • Whipped cream for serving optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a 9" round pan with parchment paper and butter the pan and paper.
  • Sieve and whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a bowl. Set the bowl aside.
  • Use an electric mixer to beat the butter and 2/3 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract.
  • Turn the mixer to low speed. Add in the buttermilk and the dry ingredients in 3 alternating batches, ending with the dry ingredients. Do not over beat.
  • Turn off the mixer and use a spatula to fold gently until all the dry ingredients just blended. Pour into the prepared 9" pan. Smooth the top with the spatula.
  • Scatter the blackberries over the batter and lightly press them in. Sprinkle the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar over the top.
  • Bake the cake for 30-35 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Let it sit for 10 minutes on a wire rack. Slowly turn out the cake, remove the paper and let the cake cool right side up on a wire rack.
  • Optional: Serve with whipped cream.
