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.

Pickled Red Onions

These pickled onions are super simple to make and taste so good on burgers, salads and whatever else you can imagine.

Above: Here's what they look like after a few days.

Above: Use a mandolin to make the slicing easier.



Above: Top up with vinegar.

You can use red or sweet onions for this.

Someone told me that if you add beet the colour will be more vibrant. I'll try next time!

Add a clove or two of peeled garlic along with about 10 black peppercorns to the bottom of a glass jar.

Fill the jar with thinly sliced onions.

In a medium pot, bring some vinegar to a boil with pink salt and sugar. For 2 cups of vinegar I used 1/2 teaspoon of each, but you can adjust to your liking.

Once it starts to boil remove from the heat and pour over the onions. If the jar isn't full just top it off with a little more vinegar. The amount of vinegar you need depends on the size of your jar.

Refrigerate for at least a day. Longer is better.

Put them on everything.
