Grams Strawberry Cake Recipes

OLD-FASHIONED STRAWBERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Smear or brush a bit of butter onto the bottom of a 9-inch cake pan and line with parchment paper (either cut to fit the bottom, or leaving some hanging over the edges for easy removal).
• Whisk flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl.
• In a stand mixer (or using an electric hand mixer and a large bowl), beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla together on medium-high, periodically scraping down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything incorporates, until the mixture is pale, light, fluffy and creamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add eggs, one at a time, beating to blend between additions. (This is a good time to scrape down the sides again.)
• Reduce the mixer speed to low and carefully add half the flour mixture, followed by half the buttermilk. Repeat with remaining flour mixture and buttermilk, beating just until no large lumps remain.
• Using a spatula, gently fold in half the strawberries and transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan. Scatter with remaining strawberries and sprinkle with demerara sugar.
• Bake until cake is puffed, deeply golden brown on the top and pulling away at the sides, 45 to 50 minutes. (It should spring back slightly when pressed in the center and appear fully baked where the strawberries meet the cake.)
• Let cake cool completely before removing it from the pan (either by inverting or lifting with the parchment lining). The cake can be baked up to three days ahead and stored tightly wrapped at room temperature, or refrigerated.

CLASSIC STRAWBERRY CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the strawberry purée: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Spread the strawberries on a baking sheet and toss with the sugar until well coated.
• Roast the strawberries for about 25 minutes, or until very fragrant and bright red in color.
• Transfer the roasted strawberries to a blender and purée for 1-2 minutes, or until very smooth.
• Transfer the strawberry purée to a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for about 20 minutes, or until very fragrant and most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in the vanilla. 6. Remove the pot from the heat and let the purée cool completely. The purée can be made 1 day ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
• Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line 2 9-inch (22 cm) round cake pans with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until very light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the strawberry purée and beat on high speed for 30 seconds. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating on medium speed after each addition for about 30 seconds, or until just combined, before adding the next.
• Add ⅓ of the dry ingredients to the batter and beat on medium speed for about 30 seconds, or until fully combined. Add the vanilla, ½ of the buttermilk, and another ⅓ of the dry ingredients and beat for another 30 seconds, until well incorporated. Add the remaining buttermilk and dry ingredients and beat to incorporate. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the vanilla, then mix on medium speed for 2 minutes.
• Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake the cakes for 30-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the cakes from the oven and let cool slightly, then remove from the pans and let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Make the frosting: In a large bowl, combine the powdered sugar and butter. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed for 1 minute, until fluffy. Add the vanilla and heavy cream and beat for 1 minute more, until smooth. The frosting will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Bring to room temperature before frosting the cake.
• To frost the cake, set one layer on a cake stand lined with strips of parchment paper. Spread about 1½ cups (260 G) of frosting evenly over the cake. Top with the remaining cake layer and evenly frost the top and sides with a thick layer of frosting. Decorate the cake with fresh strawberries.
• Enjoy!

GRANDMA'S STRAWBERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare cake mix as directed in 9 x13 pan, let cool.
• While cake is baking, dissolve gelatin in boiling water.
• When completely dissolved, stir in strawberries, sugar, and sour cream.
• Place strawberry mixture in refrigerator until cake is cool.
• When cake is cool to the touch, poke holes all over the top with the end of a wooden spoon or chopstick.
• Pour strawberry mixture all over cake.
• Frost with whipped topping.
• Refrigerat overnight to allow strawberry mixture soak into the cake.
• Note: The strawberry mixture is very runny, but will soak into the cake if ALOT of holes are poked on top of the cake and it is allowed to chill overnight.

STRAWBERRY SUMAC CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare the strawberries: Combine the chopped strawberries, sumac, sugar and almond extract in a small bowl and set aside to macerate, a process of letting the berries soften and release their juices.
• Meanwhile, prepare the cake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or springform pan with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, salt, baking soda and baking powder to combine. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or in a medium bowl using a handheld mixer, beat the eggs and 1 cup/200 grams sugar on medium-high speed until very pale and light yellow in color, about 3 minutes. The mixture should thicken and make ribbons that slowly lose their shape when they fall off the whisk attachment. With the mixer on high speed, slowly add the remaining 1 cup/240 milliliters olive oil and beat until everything is combined.
• Reduce the speed to medium-low and slowly begin adding the dry ingredients in 3 additions, adding the half-and-half in between additions. Mix until just combined. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and fold in the diced strawberries and their liquid. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Arrange the halved strawberries on the top.
• Bake for 50 to 65 minutes, until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the cake is becoming too brown before the center has set, cover loosely with foil.
• In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons/25 grams sugar with the sumac. Sprinkle the cake with the sumac sugar while still slightly warm.
• Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Turn the cake out of the pan onto the rack or release the springform ring and remove it. (If using a standard cake pan, some sugar may fall off of the cake. Use parchment or wax paper to catch any stray sugar and sprinkle back over the cake.) Let cool completely before serving. Store leftover cake in an airtight container or wrapped in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to 1 day (or refrigerate up to 4 days).
