Mixed Fruit Pastry Cake

Sunday, June 2, 2013 20:17

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

I have a habit of buying too many fresh fruits every week and many a time couldn’t finish them before they turned bad. Recently there are lot of red plums in the market, needless to say I bought them again together with other fruits as well. Getting little tired of eating the plums, I combined them with canned peaches to bake this beautiful cake. This cake is actually the same as the Fruit Pastry cake that I baked in 2010 (here) only that this time I used less fruits. I’m sure many of you will still remember how popular the cake was amongst many bloggers few years ago. This is still a very addictive cake and you’ll definitely love to go for more than a slice.

Here is another short note. I wish to thank World Kitchen (Asia Pacific) for sending this complimentary gift, Snapware Eco Flip Glass. World Kitchen (Asia Pacific) Pte Ltd markets a wide variety of well-known and trusted kitchenware brands that include Corelle, Corningware, Pyrex, Visions, Ekco, Baker’s Secret, Revere and Chicago Cutlery.

Mixed Fruit Pastry Cake

Ingredients:

100g Butter, soften at room temperature

150g Caster sugar

2 tbsp Sour cream/natural yoghurt

3 Eggs, lightly beaten

1 tsp Vanilla extract

1 tbsp Lemon juice & zest from one lemon

210g Plain flour – sifted

1 tsp Baking powder

5-6 Fresh red plums, stoned and slice thickly.

1 canned Halve peaches, rinses away the syrup and pat dry, slice thickly

Method:

Grease a 9 inch round cake pan with butter and flour or non-stick pray and line the base with parchment paper.
Cream butter, sugar and sour cream till light and fluffy.
Dribble in the eggs gradually and beat till incorporated in the batter, (The mixture appear slightly curdled)
Add vanilla extract, lemon juice and zest.
Dump in the flour and baking powder and use a rubber spatula to stir roughly and continue to cream the batter with mixer until 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 batter. Decorate the fruits as desired.
Bake in preheated oven at 180 degrees C for 60-70 mins or until skewer comes out clean when inserted into the cake. Cover the top with foil in the last 15 minutes of baking to prevent the top from getting over browned.
Leave the cake to cool in the pan for about 5-10 minutes. Unmold and transfer to wire rack to cool.
Dust cake with icing sugar (I used snow powder).

Enjoy and Have a Wonderful Week Ahead!
