blackberry pound cake
print this yum!
This is a quick and dirty variation of Brian’s low fat blueberry pound cake, which you find over here. I really wanted to try this for days, and I had freshly picked blackberries at hand, which I kept in the freezer. So Friday arrived and I thought – well, here we go, all is set and ready to go. Then I realised that I neither had enough eggs, nor yoghurt. But I so wanted such a cake, and couldn’t go to run errands, I just went ahead and made a small variation of it, cutting the original recipe by half and substituting yoghurt by milk and blueberries by blackberries. The cake is incredibly moist and has a taste which reminds me on childhood pound cakes – the good ones. I did not manage to keep the batter from taking over the blackberries colour. Thus my pictures may not be as yummy as the ones you find at Brian. But the idea of this pound cake will stay with me, and I believe I will soon try to process this into a very traditional Sandkuchen variation without any fruit. Thanks Brian for the inspiration!

This berry cake is so delicious. I believe this is one of the first cakes I made where I was completely stunned that I was able to actually produce such a taste. It tastes like images from those old movies where people spend time in the countryside sitting jointly at large tables outside in wild-flowered gardens, having afternoon tea and coffee, many children running around, laughter and plenty of cake. Hmm.
