Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan generously to prevent sticking.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and 1 cup of sugar. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
-
Add the beaten egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps, creating a thick cake batter.
-
In a separate bowl, gently toss the fresh blackberries with the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar until the berries are evenly coated. Set aside for later use.
-
Pour the prepared cake batter into the greased cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
-
Carefully arrange the sugared blackberries on top of the cake batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed. Use a spoon to gently swirl the berries into the batter, creating a marbled effect while leaving some berries on the surface.
-
Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Be mindful that if the toothpick hits a berry, it may appear moist, so try testing in different spots for accuracy.
-
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan on a wire rack for a few minutes.
-
After cooling slightly, carefully remove the cake from the pan and transfer it to a serving plate or cake stand.
-
Slice the Blackberry Coffee Cake into generous portions and serve warm for a delectable breakfast treat or a delightful dessert. Enjoy the burst of fruity flavor with each moist and tender bite!
