Pastry Fruit Cake
Saw my baking friends baked this cake and it looks so pretty, I also tempted to bake one to try. Thanks FM and cat gave the link for the recipe:
happyhomebaking.blogspot.com/2010/04/fruit-pastry-cake.html
I have made some changes to the recipes.
Ingredients:
100g butter, soften at room temperature
180g caster sugar
50g low fat yogurt
3 eggs, lightly beaten, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
210g plain flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Strawberry, blueberry, peach
Method:
Grease the side of a 9" round pan or a 8" square pan and line the base with parchment paper.
- With an electric mixer, cream butter, sugar and yogurt till light and fluffy.
- Add in the eggs gradually and beat till incorporated in the batter.
- Add vanilla extract and zest. Mix to combine.
- Sieve over flour and baking powder and mix till smooth.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
- Arrange fruits on top, don’t press the fruits down into the batter. Decorate the fruits as desired.
- Bake in pre-heat oven at 180degC for 60-70 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean when inserted into the cake. Cover the top with foil in the last 15 mins of baking to prevent the top from getting over browned.
- Leave the cake to cool in the pan for about 5~10 mins. Unmold and transfer to wire rack to let cool completely. Dust the cake with some icing sugar if desired.
Thanks Happy Home Baker for sharing the recipe.
