Description

A soft and tender raspberry cake with a buttery crumb and bursts of fresh raspberries, lightly dusted with powdered sugar and perfect for everyday baking.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups (220 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • ½ cup (120 ml) milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (180 g) fresh raspberries
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8 inch round cake pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, then mix in the milk and vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the raspberries.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
  10. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the cake tender.
  • If using frozen raspberries, add them directly without thawing.
  • The cake tastes even better the next day.
