Ingredients
- 240 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 150 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 120 milliliters Buttermilk
- 180 grams Blackberry jam
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 15 grams Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Step 4
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately mix in the flour mixture and buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix each addition until just combined; do not overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the blackberry jam and vanilla extract until the batter is evenly combined.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Step 9
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired. Slice and enjoy your Danish Blackberry Jam Cake with a cup of tea or coffee!
