How to Make Danish Blackberry Jam Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Cream together 170g softened butter and 200g granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually whisk in 4 large eggs, one at a time.
  2. In a separate large bowl, whisk together 250g all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, and ½ tsp salt.
  3. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir in 200ml buttermilk and 200g blackberry jam until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Lightly flour 100g raisins and gently fold them into the batter.
  5. Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans. Divide the batter evenly between the pans.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking at 30 minutes.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely. Frost with your favorite frosting once cooled (optional).
