ingredients
-
CAKE
- 1⁄4 cup butter
- 3⁄4 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 cup milk
-
FILLING
- 1 cup berries, chopped if large (e.g., strawberries)
- 1 cup peach, sliced (peeled or not, your choice)
-
TOPPING
- 1⁄4 cup butter
- 1⁄4 cup brown sugar
- 1⁄2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1⁄2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 pinch salt
directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9" round cake pan.
- To make the cake: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla.
- Stir in the baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
- Add the flour in three additions, stirring it in alternately with the milk, and beginning and ending with the flour. Set the batter aside while you make the topping.
- To make the topping: Mix all of the ingredients until crumbly. Don't over-mix, or you'll get a smooth paste, rather than crumbs.
- To assemble the buckle: Spread half the batter (about 10 ounces) in the prepared pan. Layer with the peach slices.
- Fold the blueberries or whatever fruit you are using into the remaining batter, and dollop it on top; a tablespoon cookie scoop works well here.
- Sprinkle the topping over the batter.
- Bake the buckle for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until it's a deep golden brown and a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the buckle from the oven, and cool it on a rack. Serve warm, or at room temperature. Store at room temperature, wrapped in plastic, for several days; freeze for longer storage.

<p>Aloha! I just recently started spending more time in the kitchen and am learning that cooking and baking can be fun as well as challenging. My favorite cookbook resources are my 'gourmet' sister and the very patient and generous Ohana of Zaar. Mahalo nui loa! <br /><br />My rating system: The first time I try a recipe, I follow the instructions as given; if I do a little tweaking, I keep that in mind when rating. It's not right to rate lower because of something I did or didn't do. <br />***** ... Excellent! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />**** ... Loved It! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />No stars ... May be an excellent recipe but I was unable to get it to work for me. May or may not try again later. We don't all have the same taste preferences. I've found recipes with lots of five stars that just didn't work for me and some with less that I thought were great. <br />Thank you All for sharing!</p>
