Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup skim milk
- 2 tablespoons butter melted and cooled a bit
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/2 -1 cup raspberries 1/2 cup is about half a 6 oz package
- 1 tablespoons Large Grain Sugar
- whipped cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F degrees, racks in the middle. Spray a 9 inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray. (Can be done in a non-springform pan too)
- Combine the flour, baking powder, and sugar in a large bowl. In a separate smaller bowl whisk together the eggs, vanilla, milk and melted butter. Pour the milk mixture over the flour mixture and stir until just combined - try not to over mix.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, pushing out toward the edges. Now drop the berries across top. I broke my raspberries into halves or thirds for this. Sprinkle with the large grain sugar over the top. Bake for about 15 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
- Serve warm or cool with whipped cream

Notes
- I always gently spoon my flour and level with a knife (as taught by King Arthur Flour) and that makes a difference with this cake.
