What You'll Need
Cake
3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup (128g) Hayden Flour Mills All Purpose Flour
1 cup (128g) Hayden Flour Mills Purple Barley Flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar
4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 large eggs
Raspberry sauce
1/2 cup (62g) fresh raspberries
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
3 tablespoons water
Glaze
1 cup (128g) powdered sugar
1-2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
Blueberries, raspberries and blackberries for garnish
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 325°. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper, with a small bit hanging over the sides (this will make it easier to lift the cake out of the pan).
-
In a bowl, whisk together flours, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a mixer with a paddle attachment, beat butter and cream cheese on medium until smooth. Add sugar and beat on high until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla and eggs, one at a time. Add flour mixture and beat until combined; set aside.
-
In a saucepan, combine the raspberries, sugar and water over medium low heat, stirring frequently, until sugar has dissolved. Simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes to thicken. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
-
Add one-third of the cake batter to the pan. Separate the remaining two-thirds batter in half; keep one to the side. In the other, stir in the cooled raspberry sauce.
-
Add the raspberry batter to the pan, then top with the remaining original batter; swirl the batter with a skewer (or similar) only slightly so as not to overmix.
-
Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, until cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached.
-
Let cool in pan on a wire rack, then remove from pan by first loosening the ends with a dull knife, then pulling the parchment up on each side. Allow to cool completely before glazing.
-
While you wait for the loaf to cool, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Spread glaze over cake and top with fresh berries.
