Рецепт Farm Stand Blackberry Cornbread Buckle: #SundaySupper BBQ
I’ve had a hankering to make a blackberry buckle for a long time. Every since, in fact, I saw this recipe on Food52 for Blackberry Cornbread Buckle by janeofmanytrade. So, a couple of weeks ago when Carnivorous Maximus and I stopped by a farm stand in the Central Valley selling boxes brimming with fat blackberries, I knew immediately what I would make.
But would they be good enough for this dessert that I’d been planning in my head for, like, a YEAR? After all, the expectations of any dish I make are inversely proportional to how long I procrastinate in actually making it. When I put off making my own hummus for five years, I expected my first go at it to be rock star. Good enough for the Food Network. Giada should be calling me.
So purely in the interest of research, I slipped one of those juicy babies into my mouth when the farm stand operator wasn’t looking, and it softly burst open with warm berry sweetness and just a touch tart. Sold. Money was quickly exchanged (thanks Myles!). I reserved one box just for snacking and morning yogurt. The rest were destined for buckle greatness I would serve at a casual dinner party with friends.
What’s a buckle? Cake batter generously covered with luscious, juicy fruit and finished with a streusel topping. The weight of the fruit buckles the cake as it bakes, creating a very rustic, farmhouse-like cake. It might not win prizes for how it looks, but it’s one of my favorite ways to eat cake in the summer. It’s tender and moist with a burst of fruit. Summer perfection on a plate.
Farmstand Blackberry Cornbread Buckle: #SundaySupper BBQ
This recipe was slightly adapted from Blackberry Cornbread Buckle on Food52 by janeofmanytrades.
Ingredients...
- Blackberry Buckle
- 4 c fresh blackberries
- 1/2 c sugar
- 1 t freshly grated lemon zest
- 1 t rosewater
- 3/4 t ground cardamom
- 6 oz unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 c sugar
- 1 t vanilla extract
- 1/2 t salt
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/2 c all purpose flour
- 3/4 c cornmeal
- 2 1/4 t baking powder
- 1 c buttermilk
- Oat Crumb Topping (below)
- Oatmeal Crumb Topping
- 1/2 c all purpose flour
- 1/2 c rolled oats
- 1/3 c light brown sugar
- 1/2 t cinnamon
- 1/8 t baking soda
- 4 T unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
Directions...
Blackberry Buckle
Combine the blackberries, sugar, lemon zest, rosewater, and cardamom in a bowl. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease and flour a 10" deep dish pie plate, 10" x 10" pan, or 11" pie plate, and set aside.
Cream the butter with the sugar, vanilla, and salt in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light, about 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, waiting until each egg is completely mixed in before adding the next. You may need to scrape the bowl in between adding the eggs, particularly after the first one.
Whisk the flours and baking powder together to thoroughly distribute the baking powder through the flours. Even though this is a buckle, it's nice to have an even buckling, so to speak. Fold the flour mixture into the batter in thirds using a spatula until combined. Pour in the buttermilk and continue folding until no streaks remain.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the surface. Top the cornbread evenly with the berries. By now, there should be some juices in the berry bowl - make sure you add those too! The berries should cover the entire cake.
Sprinkle the Oat Crumb Topping evenly over the fruit, and bake until a pick comes out clean, about 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes. Because of all the berries, it's good to test the cake in a few areas. This cake is fantastic served warm or cold, but warm is just a little better. And don't forget a scoop of ice cream.
Oatmeal Crumb Topping
Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and toss around with your fingers. Add the butter cubes and rub the ingredients together with your fingers until pea sized crumbs are formed.
