Blackberry Bunt Cake

A dear friend from church gave this to me after I had gone blackberry picking. We were living in the Seattle Wa. area at the time and they grew wild all along the roads.

This was a very pleasant cake that was not too sweet. The batter was quite thick and, even though I baked it in a bundt pan as directed for 1-1/4 hours after which it tested done, there was actually a little undercooked batter near the bottom center. I think I would try this again in a 13x9-inch baking pan, so it could cook more evenly. I liked that it was not very sweet (even though there was 2 cups of sugar in it)! A great use for fresh blackberries. Made for ZWT 8 - Zingo.Reply

Thank you for sharing this recipe Elainiemay. It is wonderful, easy to follow instructions, quick to make, it was on the table in no time...It was a beautifully textured cake with all kinds of flavor, moist, tender, tall and light. The semi sweet cake was perfect with just a little dusting of icing sugar. I also only made half the cake, as there are only two of us. It was the perfect size. My dh was over the moon, he loved it. The berries were sweet and tart just perfect. Made for the Fearless Red Dragons - ZWT8 - Great BritianReply
