Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest until well combined.
  5. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in another bowl.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
  7. Fold in the blackberries, being careful not to break them apart.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  11. Serve and enjoy the sweet-tart magic!

Notes

Use room temperature eggs and butter for a smoother batter. If blackberries are very juicy, fold them in gently to avoid streaking.
