List of Ingredients
1/3 cup sugar, preferably superfine
1/3 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large egg
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch salt
1/3 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Sugared berries or peaches
Ice cream, milk or cream
Spritz an 8-inch round cake pan with nonstick baking spray; set aside. Toss the berries or peaches with a little sugar and let stand for about 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. With a hand-held electric mixer at medium-high speed, cream the sugar with the butter until light, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and continue to mix for about 2 minutes.
Combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the vanilla to the milk.
Lower the mixer speed and add dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Do not overmix. With a spatula, gently spread the batter in the pan.
Bake until lightly golden, about 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. Invert onto a cake plate. When ready to serve, top with berries and their juices and ice cream, milk or cream.
Makes about 6 wedges.
