All Purpose Flour / Maida – 1 1/2 cup / 180 grams
Sugar – 1 cup + 2 tblspn for topping / 200 grams + 2 tblspn
Unsalted Butter – 6 tblspn / 85 grams
Vanilla Essence – 1 tsp
Egg – 1
Milk – 1/2 cup / 120 ml
Baking Powder – 1 1/2 tsp
Salt – 1/2 tsp
Strawberries – around 2 cups or as needed
(My 1 cup measures 240 ml)
Method:
Preheat oven to 180 degree C. Grease a 9 inch round tin with oil and dust with flour. Set this aside.
Mix together flour, baking powder and salt and set aside.
Now take butter, vanilla and sugar in a bowl and use a beater to whip this up.
Now add in egg and whip again till fluffy.
Now add in half of the flour and fold gently. Add in milk and the remaining flour and fold gently. The batter will be thick.
Now spoon this batter in the baking pan and top with halved strawberries. Now sprinkle sugar on top and bake for 50 to 60 mins. Insert a toothpick to check whether the cake is done, If the toothpick comes out clean then the cake is done.
Now let the cake cool in the tin for 15 mins or so.Now slice and serve.

Yum!! This strawberry summer cake recipe is really great. Would love to try this for my cousin’s bridal shower. Thanks for the recipe. She has booked one of garden party venues in NYC for the party. Very excited for her.

You can use any essence for vanilla. But baking powder cannot be substituted
