One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake

I had some berries they weren’t being eaten so I made this delicious berry cake. I had fresh berries but you could also use frozen. This cake is so easy to make, and you only need one bowl. I think it would also taste great with cranberries and lemon extract instead of almond.  One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake Makes 1 11x7” Cake Ingredients 2 cups fresh berries (I used blueberries and strawberries)  1/4 cup brown sugar 3/4 cup white sugar 1/4 cup butter, melted 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon almond extract 2 large eggs 3/4 cup sour cream 1/4 cup milk 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/3 cup sliced or sliced almonds Brown sugar for topping Directions Preheat the oven to 350F and grease an 11”x7” baking dish.

Imli Chatni (Indian Tamarind Sauce / Chutney)

This was a very nice sauce. First it's sweet but then you get a hint of sourness from the tamarind and the flavour of the cumin. It would be good to serve with samosas or other fried appetisers. Maybe even as a dip for chicken or wings.




Imli Chatni (Indian Tamarind Sauce / Chutney)
Original Recipe: whats4eats
Makes a little over 1 cup

Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon tamarind pulp
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/8 cup raisins
  • 1/8 cup chopped dates
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
  • salt (to taste)
Directions
  1. Take the tamarind pulp and soak it in the warm water for 20 minutes.
  2. Press the mixture through a sieve to remove seeds and stems.
  3. Add all other ingredients and blend for a minute or two. Mine still had a few chunks of raisins and dates.
Tip:
  • You can find tamarind paste at Indian supermarkets but I found mine at an Asian store in the produce area right beside the whole tamarind. If you can find whole tamarind, get some, it's so yummy to have as a snack, and comes in a sweet and sour option.
