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.

Foil Wrapped Salmon on the Barbecue

This is one of our favourite ways to cook salmon during the warmer months. It's really juicy but somehow still has that special flavour that you can only get from the barbecue.


Foil Wrapped Salmon on the Barbecue
Makes 6 servings

Ingredients
  • 6 4oz pieces of salmon fillet
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed saffron threads
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 lemon sliced
  • cooking spray
Directions
  1. Preheat your grill to medium while you prepare the fish.
  2. Cut 6 pieces of foil large enough to wrap the salmon pieces in. If using salmon with skin, place the fish skin side down on the foil. If using skinless salmon, spray the foil with cooking spray before placing the salmon on the foil (or use a small piece of parchment paper under the fish).
  3. Drizzle some lemon juice on top of each piece of fish. Mix dill, saffron, salt and pepper. Sprinkle spice mix over fish. Place a few slices of lemon on top of the fish then seal the top and edges of the foil very well.
  4. Place on the grill for about 20 minutes or until fish is flaky. You can open one packet to check. There's no need to flip the packets at any point during cooking. Just be sure to watch out for the hot steam when opening them.
  5. Serve with rice or salad.
Tips:
  • You can do this with a whole piece of salmon fillet for a different presentation. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly. It will really depend on the thickness of your fish.
