strawberry and blueberry summer cake from smitten kitchen


I was planning to feature a healthy, non-dessert and non-baking type recipe today. That was until I stumbled upon one of my all time favourite food blogs, Smitten Kitchen, and saw this cake. My healthy recipe plan went right out the window. Thank goodness for that though, because this cake is sensational. Plus, it has fruit in it, so that's healthy...isn't it?

I followed Deb's recipe word by word, except making one adjustment by adding blueberries in with the strawberries too, but I can imagine it would still be super scrumptious sans blueberries. The recipe was so easy to follow and I was extremely impressed with the outcome - I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed.
