This is no doubt the easiest blueberry galette with puff pastry that you can see around! You can make a blueberry dessert with puff pastry and turn it into a fantastic afternoon bite. Puff pastry and blueberries make wonders when they are paired together! 

This rustic, free-form galette is filled with sweet, juicy blueberries and wrapped in a flaky, buttery crust. With just a handful of ingredients and a few simple steps, you can create a stunning dessert that looks as good as it tastes.

However, if you are craving more sweets, but not very sweet, here are some other suggestions you can look into besides this puff pastry blueberry galette:

• Vegan Strawberry Banana Smoothie
• Strawberry and Apple Crumble
• Alcohol-Free Tiramisu

Reasons To Try Blueberry Galette With Puff Pastry 

• It’s sweet, but also tangy – if your blueberries are sweet enough, leave the sugar completely out. You will need a little cornstarch to make the filling thicker, and a little lemon zest to enhance the flavor.

• Effortless recipe – You won’t need to cook anything beforehand. Just mix and layer.

• Not lots of sugar needed – As I mentioned earlier, you can leave the sugar out. However, if your blueberries are not very sweet like mines (I used wild blueberries), you can massage some zest with sugar to preserve the fresh flavor as much as possible. 

• Eggless and dairy-free – No cream cheese is needed for this blueberry galette with puff pastry. Nor eggs. I mean, no egg wash is necessary at the end of the recipe. All you’ll need to do is “wash” the puff pastry with some vegan butter and sprinkle sugar on top.

• Only a few ingredients are needed – In desserts usually you need lots of sugar and many other ingredients. This vegan blueberry galette does not have the same “formula”. 

Ingredients For Puff Pastry Blueberry Galette

• Puff pastry – 1 sheet needed
• Blueberries
• Lemon – Both juice and zest
• Sugar – both white crystal sugar and brown sugar will work
• Almond butter – you can replace almond butter with any other butter of your choice. You will spread some almond butter on the puff pastry before adding the blueberry filling.

How To Make Blueberry Galette With Puff Pastry 

1. Let the puff pastry sit at room temperature. Do not let it melt completely. You will need it to be cool.

2. Mix lemon zest and sugar and rub them a little bit so they can add flavor to one another.

3. Add blueberries and a drizzle of lemon juice. Then add the sugar and mix gently. Let them sit for some minutes. At this step, you are done with making the blueberry filling for puff pastry galette recipe.

4. Open the puff pastry sheet and in the middle spread a layer of almond butter. Add as much as you want. However, I recommend you to be generous at this point because the flavor of almond butter at the end is heavenly. 

5. Add the blueberry filling and then fold the puff pastry as you like. Don’t worry about folding it nicely. This is a quick recipe, so you may be as careless as you want.

1. Brush the edges of the galette with some melted butter and lastly sprinkle sugar on them.

Blueberry Puff Pastry Recipe Tips 

• Let the puff pastry and blueberry galette cool completely down before slicing and serving. Add a scoop of ice cream if you like.

• If you like the filling to be a little runny and contain as much fruit juice as possible, then use less cornstarch. 

• Feel free to use lots of other fruit instead of blueberries. You can improvise with a mixture of berries, peaches, apples, pears, apricots, cherries, peaches etc.

Storage Tips For Blueberry Puff Pastry Recipe

To be honest, I highly doubt there will be anything left from this ridiculously easy blueberry puff pastry recipe. Besides it is extremely delicious. Deep down you’ll wish you had it all to yourself… like I did!

However, you may store this galette in a container for up to 2 days or let it sit at room temperature safely for a day. Be careful! If it’s hot (like summer) then put it in the fridge.

FAQS About Recipes With Blueberry and Puff Pastry

Is Galette Made from Puff Pastry?

Not always. A galette is a typical French pastry that is made like a free-from crust. You can buy a puff pastry or you can do it yourself at home. The galette’s dough traditionally is thicker and more flaky than a puff pastry.

Is Galette Dough the Same as Pie Dough?

No, they are different from each other. The galette’s dough is baked on a baking sheet, it is uneven and it holds itself together. A pie’s dough is baked in a tart pan or another baking pan, and it is more even. 

How Do You Keep Puff Pastry Moist?

You need your puff pastry to be moist only for a couple of hours before adding the filling and baking it. However, if you are meal-planning, keep the pastry filled but cover the entire pan in a plastic wrap and put it in the fridge until you’re ready to bake it. 

All done!

Every apple strawberry recipe is a winner! Apple strawberry crumble is a dessert that tastes better every time you make it. 

It is effortless to make, very quick to prepare, and the most versatile dessert ever! You can put in almost every fruit.

When apples and strawberries are put together, absolute harmony happens. The sweetness of the strawberries complements the tartness of the apples perfectly. 

Together, they create a generous amount of fruit goodness that is sure to please even the most discerning palate.

This recipe does not make any exceptions. My apple strawberry crisp with frozen strawberries is the perfect gluten-free apple crumble.

The crumble for this recipe is crunchy and flaky. Oats make strawberry apple crumble a little crispier. Try adding almond flakes for a little extra.

Read on to see how easy it is:

How To Make Apple And Strawberry Crumble, Quick And Easy

Step 1, preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius. 

Step 2, get the dishes well buttered. This will prevent the sugar from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Step 3:

Prepare The Fruity Base

Strawberry – There are washed and cleaned before freezing, so there wasn’t much I should do here. I did not cut them because I like to see their shape on my plate. It feels more natural and homemade this way.

Apples – Golden apples are my favorite, and they were starting to go bad. At this point, apples begin to get a bit sweeter. Shred them for this recipe, and they will look nicer and blended with the strawberries.

Lemon – First zest a whole lemon and then juice it. The other way around is not handy.

Powdered sugar – You can experiment with other sugars, but I like to keep the sweetness under control. In a good crumble recipe, you are supposed to taste the original fruit tartness. 

Step 4:

Make The Gluten-Free Crumble

• Oats – Every oat will be perfect. I find that the presence of oats makes the crumble an absolute bliss!

• Flour – For a gluten-free crumble, use gluten-free flour. Otherwise, regular plain flour works very well too.

• Caster sugar – Best to use for a crunchy crumble is Demerara sugar. But I used caster sugar here because oats were enough for the ideal crispy texture the crumble needs to have.

• Cinnamon – Usually add cinnamon to fruit. I added it to the upper layer in this recipe because I like the color it adds.

• Butter – Some like to melt the butter before adding it to the consistency. For me, cold butter or butter at room temperature helps make breadcrumbs easier.

Mix all the ingredients gently with the top of your fingertips. You don’t need to do any rubbing here because you are not preparing any dough.

Make sure all the crumbs have some butter in it. They get the golden brown color from butter. 

Strawberry Apple Crumble – Recipe Troubleshooting 

How To Make Crumble Not Dry?

If you are trying to make more or less crumble than usual, you may encounter this problem – the crumble is dry.

To avoid this, add a little bit of melted butter, as little as one tablespoon at a time. 

Remix and recheck. This way, you can control when the crumble has reached that perfect fatty consistency it needs before baking.

How To Fix Wet Crumble

Use cold butter. You have more control over the crumble when you cut the cold butter into cubes and add it in parts. You can feel, this way, with the top of your fingertips, how crunchy the crumble becomes.

Be patient and learn the ratio by practicing until you don’t need to browse for recipes anymore. 

• Bake separately. If you eat crumble daily, consider baking it in a separate pan.

On parchment paper, spread it evenly and have it ready every time you need it to mix it with the combination of fruits.

Some cooks choose to bake separately when they don’t like how a part of the crumble soaks in the fruit juice. 

They want to have each layer with a different texture. The crumble is really crunchy, and the fruit is squishy and juicy with a hint of syrupy stickiness. 

 If you are part of this group, try baking the crumble separately.

• Cornstarch. A tiny quantity that makes miracles and solves the problem forever.

Cornstarch is the perfect solution to suck in all the liquids and hold the crumble from sinking into the fruit juice. Potato starch also does the work. 

How To Fix Doughy Crumble Topping

The quantity is why you have a topping that looks like dough.

You must have gotten the ratio wrong along with the recipe making.

What will bring the topping back into the crunchy texture is:

• Demerara sugar. If it is not accessible, use any brown sugar with big crystals. 
• Oats – Oats make the crumble crispy, but in this case, it will bring it back to being crunchy.

How To Reheat Crumble

Before reheating, ensure your apple and strawberry crumble is at room temperature. Otherwise, let it sit for 20 – 25 minutes until it reaches room temperature.

• Oven. Pop it in the oven for 20 minutes at 175C or 350F.
• Microwave. Use a microwave-safe dish to reheat. Use full power at 30 to 35 seconds.

How To Store Crumble

If you plan to refrigerate it, simply wrap the pan. It is safe to use for up to 5 days.

For longer periods, freeze is the solution. Use an airtight container or freezer bag. The topping is safe to use for up to three months.

FAQs About Strawberry Apple Crumble

Why Is My Apple Crumble Not Crispy?

Wondering why your apple crumble is not crispy? There are several reasons why your apple crumble is not crispy. First, maybe you have not used the right kind of sugar. Second, ingredient quantities are important: not the correct ratio between the flour/butter and the sugar makes the crumble not crispy. Third, the layer of crumble is too thin.

How Do You Make Fruity Crumble?

How Do You Make Fruity Crumble? First, mix flour, oats, and sugar. Then, add butter and mix until the consistency feels like breadcrumbs. Drain and cut any fruit you like to make a fruity crumble. Fruits that make great crumble are stone fruit, berries – all varieties, apples, and pears.

How Do You Make Apple Crumble Crunchy?

Wondering how to make your apple crumble crunchy? Here’s how: First, let the apple crisps cool down. Next, cover with a paper towel. Last, wrap all the dish in plastic wrap. It is safe to leave the apple crumble for two days at room temperature, up to 5 days in the fridge, and freeze it for long-term storage.

Do you like my crumble with a nice scoop of vanilla and chocolate ice cream? Yum!

What about when I top it with a tablespoon of mascarpone cheese? Please, don’t hate me!

The best summer desserts are the ones that do not require any baking, and they can get done in minutes. This alcohol-free tiramisu cake recipe checks all the boxes. 

Moms, this tiramisu cake without alcohol is perfect for your kids. It will satisfy any sweet tooth! You can make this tiramisu recipe without rum from scratch. It is effortless to make and calls for just five ingredients.

If you are looking for something else that is sweet and cold, take a look at this Vegan Strawberry Banana Smoothie you can make in 5 minutes! Carrot cakes are also a summer favorite.

How To Make Alcohol-Free Tiramisu Cake Recipe With Only 5 Ingredients?

Unlike the other tiramisu cake recipes, this one does not have any alcohol or coffee flavor. You can layer it up on a tray, but you can also present it elegantly in a martini glass or any other glassware of your preference to mark an occasion.

Ingredients For Tiramisu Without Alcohol

• Ladyfingers. They are a must for tiramisu recipes. They give texture, and they have a slight crunch. 

• Cocoa powder. First, add cocoa powder to two cups of boiling water, stir, and let it cool completely. You will also need to spread some powder at the end.

• Eggs. Use raw eggs. Separate the whites from the yolks and follow the instructions below.

• Mascarpone cheese. This heavenly cheese gives all the creamy consistency to the dessert. Here I am using a 17.5 oz bowl.

• Sugar. Use caster sugar in this recipe. You may also try the powder sugar, but you need a larger quantity to achieve the desired sweetness. Do not use brown sugar for tiramisu because you don’t want the cream to have a brown shade.

Procedure For No Alcohol Tiramisu Recipe, Step By Step

1. Put two-three tablespoons of cocoa butter into 500 ml boiling water. Mix until dissolved and let it cool. 

2. Separate the egg whites from the yolk into two different bowls.

3. Using a whisk or electric mixer, beat the yolks at low speed until they’re light in color and have doubled in size. 

To achieve perfect consistency, keep mixing until they are pale and airy. This process can be tedious, but your eggs will never reach their full potential if you don’t put in the effort.

4. Add mascarpone cheese and keep beating until it gets silky and smooth.

5. Once you have finished this bowl, start beating the whites. Make sure your whisk or mixer is clean first, or you’ll be sorry! 

I suggest you start at a low rate and gradually increase the speed. At first, low speed is best. You can turn it up after a few seconds, though.

You’ll know the white eggs are firm when you can gently touch their surface without them moving. If they do not resist the pressure, they need more time.

6. Continue by adding sugar. Mix and mix until the sugar is dissolved, and when you taste it, you can’t feel any tiny crystals.

7. When you have a nice white meringue, transfer it tablespoon by tablespoon to the mascarpone-yolk bowl. At this point, you do not use a hand mixer anymore.

Gradually add the meringue to the yolks bowl, and mix gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until you achieve a creamy consistency.

8. Now, dip each of the ladyfingers into the cold cocoa and start layering. Do not soak them—just a brief dip. 

If you are using a glass, you may need to break the ladyfingers into 2 pieces. However, you can also set one ladyfinger at the side and fill the glass with cream. Keep in mind that the top of the glass would be the filling.

If you are using a tray, proceed with one layer of cocoa-flavored ladyfingers and one layer of cream.

 The cream should not be runny but well dissolved and very silky.

Tiramisu Recipe Variation Without Eggs And Coffee

You can let the eggs out and replace this ingredient with heavy whipping cream. For this variant of tiramisu, you will not need two bowls. 

Instead of eggs, beat well a cup and a half of heavy whipping cream, and then add the mascarpone. 

After this, layer up in whatever dish you are using. 

How To Serve This Alcohol-Free Tiramisu Cake

The standard way to serve tiramisu is on a large tray. You need to cut the tiramisu into portions and place it on individual plates for serving.

However, people have started to like having a whole tiramisu for themselves. Don’t get me wrong, who does not want a tray tiramisu for herself? I’m the first one!

People like it when glasses or jars are entirely for themselves and don’t have to share any portions. This way, they can also see through and create expectations for the deliciousness they are about to eat.

Besides, those trays are never equally portioned. 

Freezing And Refrigerating Alcohol-Free Tiramisu Cake

The cake is ready after a few hours of chilling in the fridge. It does not have to be overnight, but 2-3 hours is enough! Because there are eggs, I don’t suggest letting them rest longer than two days in the fridge.

I don’t think there will be any remains. Do not freeze tiramisu with eggs. If you have tried an eggless version, feel free to freeze it. It will be safe to use for a month. 

FAQs About Alcohol-Free Tiramisu

What Can I Substitute For Alcohol In Tiramisu?

Alternatively, replace alcohol with extra coffee or cold cocoa. Also, instead of fruit liqueurs, sprinkle flavored fruit juice variants on the sponge base, such as orange juice instead of orange liqueur; cherry juice or syrup instead of kirsch.

Can I Make Tiramisu Without Rum?

You can make tiramisu with or without alcohol. Some recipes use coffee-flavored liqueur, marsala, or brandy. Coffee liqueur enhances the coffee flavor. The best thing to do is to make tiramisu in advance so that the flavor can have the time to blend into one another.

Does Tiramisu Always Have Alcohol?

Traditionally, tiramisu recipes have Marsala wine or rum as an important ingredient. The dose of coffee or espresso you can use is liberal, but taste during the making so you know when it is enough for you. Tiramisu recipes are not cooked. Therefore, the alcohol flavor is very potent but should not be dominant.

Does Tiramisu Cake Have Alcohol?

Does tiramisu have alcohol? Originally, tiramisu recipes had Marsala Wine in their cream and ladyfingers soaked in coffee mixture.

Don’t forget to dust it with unsweetened cocoa powder at the end! Chill and enjoy!

Look at this vegan strawberry banana smoothie recipe that can become your breakfast in less than 5 minutes. A handful of delicious ingredients will fill your jar with a smoothie without yogurt. 

Oh yes! This is a strawberry banana smoothie without yogurt, and it is even more pleasant than the others you have already tasted. 

The presence of peanut butter in this strawberry vegan smoothie makes it complete. 

The banana gives a nice sweetness, and the strawberry lets the smoothie taste slightly tangy. But the peanut butter gives the nutty flavor that enhances the combination and makes it very hard to beat!

When you feel a dish is perfect, like nothing is missing, do you know? This vegan strawberry smoothie recipe is that kind of excellent, healthy, creamy breakfast.

Try other tasty breakfast recipes:

Vegan Strawberry Banana Smoothie Ingredients

• Strawberry. The strawberry gives a fresh flavor, especially if it is frozen, and a dose of acid sensation. The bright red berry ingredient gives a reddish shade to the smoothie.

• Banana. The pulpy yellowish ingredient gives a nice creamy texture to the smoothie. It brings sweetness to the bowl, avoiding honey. Pairing bananas with heart-healthy fats and berries make a perfectly balanced breakfast. 
• Almond butter. It is almond butter that makes the fruit and dairy combinations a proper meal. Instead of almond butter, you may choose your favorite vegan nut butter. If not Vegan, please don’t replace this with regular butter. 

• Almond milk. The more milk you add, the runnier it will be. You decide how much nutty goodness suits you best with its creamy texture.

Possible Substitutes For Vegan Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Smoothies are versatile, and you can make the best use of them as meals or even snacks, especially for children.

But do you know what the BEST thing to do with a smoothie leftover is? Popsicles.

They will make amazing fresh homemade ice-creams, and no way the kids will say ‘no’ to the vibrant cubes.

However, here is how you can diversify your smoothie:

Instead of strawberries, you can use any other berries. Maximize berries season and stretch it the most you can.

Instead of strawberries, you can use any other berries. Maximize berry season and stretch it the most you can.

You may only want your smoothie to have one ingredient that gives the mixture a creamy consistency. So, would it be enough only to use banana or nut butter?

If you want your smoothie to have a creamy consistency but don’t plan on using any sweet ingredients, go with bananas. They have enough natural sugar to make your smoothie taste sweet.

You can still have a healthy strawberry banana milkshake without any nut butter.

MILK is not the option of dairy. Even though I used vegan milk, you can use whole milk. You can even use yogurt. But you can have a fantastic strawberry smoothie recipe without yogurt. 

Dairy is an optional ingredient. Replace it with water (and ice). It is going to be just as good. 

FAQs About Vegan Strawberry Smoothies

How Do You Make A Vegan Strawberry Banana Milkshake?

First, peel the banana and break it into big chunks. Add it to the blender with frozen strawberries for a fresh and creamy result. Drizzle your favorite syrup and pour almond milk over it. Blend on high for a quick result.

What Liquid Do I Put In A Strawberry Banana Smoothie?

Except for the two ingredients (strawberry and banana), you can add water and ice to make the combo runny. This is the simplest smoothie recipe you can make: Strawberry Banana Smoothie.

Sourdough french toast means toast you can pack with as many flavors as you like. We want them crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and you can have both of these even in a sourdough french toast.

This toast requires no milk—all you need to get the crispiness in only one well-beaten egg.

As I am a toast lover and often a lazy cook , let me remind you of these pizza toasts veggies and other vegan-friendly breakfast toasts ideas you can enjoy instead of cooking other things.

Today I will share the combos I like to include in my morning french toast, and I promise the changes I made will make this toast the best kick-start of the day.

Our sweet caramelized sourdough french toast is great for:

• vegetarians,
• chocolate lovers
• fruit lovers
• busy people

It comes with a complete package you must include in your french toast recipes collection.

Caramelized Sourdough French Toast Ingredients Are…

• First things first, two slices of sourdough bread.
• Fondant chocolate. I used a 80% cocoa chocolate, but any of your favorite chocolate will work.
• A whole range egg. The fresher the better.
• One banana.
• A handful of hazelnuts.
• Yoghurt. We need probiotics in the morning, right?
• Pomegranate seeds. Now pomegranates are in season, make good use of them.
• Butter, not salted.
• Powdered sugar and cinnamon, just a pinch.

Sourdough French Toast Sandwich Tips

Unlike other toasts, we will try to make this one look like a sandwich because we will put chocolate in it. So, can we call it a sourdough french toast chocolate sandwich?

Tip 1. Please do not soak the sides of the bread equally. Soak less the insides, where you add the chocolate, and let the outsides soak longer as they will get toasted.

Tip 2. Caramelize the french toast by spreading powdered sugar on the top of the bread and toast it one more time. Be careful when flipping the sides though, it is scorching!

Tip 3. Careful when choosing the banana. Using a ripe banana may not be the best choice in this case. Fry until they get golden brown.

Bananas tend to get real soggy after getting fried, so pick one that is not already tender. Put hazelnuts into the same pan, so they release the flavors and cook faster.

Tip 4. Use the fruit you like. I see berries make a good combo with french toast, but try including the seasonal fruits instead. They are perfect.

Can I Freeze It?

Sure! Use an airtight bag and put it in the freezer.

Let me tell you, though, that the taste will not be as magical as it is when you cook it last minute with fresh ingredients.

In case you want to reheat it, baking would be a better option. Please put it in the oven so you will have a general cooking and a slower caramelization.

I suggest 8 minutes of baking at 180C (356F) in the oven or microwave. Otherwise, toasting would still be alright.

Carrot cake with buttercream frosting is the cake that not only goes with every occasion, but it’s the #1 favorite cake of every weekend as well!

It is completely effortless, and the buttermilk frosting doesn’t even need a piping bag. You can put the frosting jar in the fridge for up to 4 days and use it according to your needs.

This is the perfect carrot cake with buttercream frosting to cook on a Thursday night, an hour or two before you go to sleep. The process is quick, super easy, it won’t take you a long time. Oh, and if you have a sweet tooth, do not feel guilty!

Keeping a balanced diet allows you to have a carrot cake with a buttermilk frosting like this once a week. I mean, that’s great news!

Anyways, if you still think there is too much sweetness, consider that oranges, carrots, and the heaven-on-earth frosting on top have, maybe, the perfect substitute for the sugar.

Carrots are wrapped up with sweetness at this part of the year; Oranges, on the other hand, are top fruit rich in vitamin C, while hazelnuts just put the cherry on the cake as the ultimate nut that goes perfectly with every dessert. I mean, it’s all so packed!

Yes, try adding hazelnuts just before you serve the cake. For example, chop some hazelnuts and spread them on top of the frosting. This is a piece of this cake the next day it is baked.

Enough with the mouthwatering..let’s make it!

Carrot Cake With Buttermilk Frosting’s Ingredients

Begin with two mixing bowls. Whisk the dry ingredients together in 1 bowl, then the wet ingredients in another bowl.

• All-purpose flour and 00 flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, a pinch of salt. These are the dry ingredients for this recipe.
• The chopped butter. Make sure it is at room temperature.
• Three whole eggs. It is preferred for eggs to be at room temperature too.
• Granulated sugar and brown sugar. The reason why we choose brown sugar is its color. It makes the cake a little darker, and carrots have a better appearance. But you may not use brown sugar and only go with the white one instead.
• One orange (juice and zest) and half a lemon (only liquid). You can choose to zest the lemon, but I prefer to dominate the orange as I like its sweetness.
• Grated carrots. Make sure you grate them at the last minute so they do not lose color. Also, do shred them yourself at home, as it gives extra moisture to the cake.
• As for the frosting, go with powdered sugar. It melts easily, and it created the perfect consistency a frosting needs.

Procedure For The Cake

First, mix sugar and butter until they become a paste.

Next, add the eggs one at a time until all the mixture becomes smooth.

Than, zest and juice both of the orange and half a lemon into the wet ingredients until they thoroughly combine.

Add the dry ingredients slowly until they all incorporate.

Last, add the grated carrots.

Stir with a spatula and transfer the mixture into a baking sheet.

Bake for 25 minutes at 350F and check if it’s ready with a stick. If the bar comes out clean, it is prepared!

It Is Time To Prepare The Frosting

While the cake is baking, mix butter with a hand mixer for around 5 minutes. The butter needs to be very soft and really smooth. The lighter its’ color becomes, the easier it will be for the sugar to get incorporated.

Add the powdered sugar while checking for sweetness. A pinch of salt would help offset the sweetness too.

Last but not least, add a tablespoon of milk. This last step ensures the frosting is “hydrated.” By that, I mean that milk creates the silkiness of the whole mixture. It is worth the wait, trust me!

That’s it! It is ready.

Tips For The Frosting

Pop it into the fridge, so the next day, the only thing you will have to do is chop the hazelnuts. But if you will eat the cake the next day and think preparing the frosting now is too much ahead of time, you can make it 30 mins before actually eating the cake.

Preparing the frosting will only take a few minutes, but I suggest chilling it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes before serving. This guarantees the creamy frosting will hold its shape.

Roast the hazelnuts before chopping. This will add extra flavor and give a darker color to the nuts.

And by the way, look how this cake is a little cracked in the edge. That because I did not spread butter evenly around the edge of the springform. So, please do not avoid this step.

Please do not bother using a piping bag for spreading the frosting. It is so easy and on hand using a tablespoon.

The taste is just as heavenly. Enjoy every single bite of it!

The cake is so soft and fluffy. I don’t think anyone in the family will resist its smell. I mean, this cake shouts, “Eat me, now!”.

I heard it right! I showed this piece of cake a good time. Done! In three minutes. I don’t lose my time.

Ladies and gentlemen… thank me later.

Instructions

1. Mix all the dry ingredients and set aside .
   
2. In the other bowl mix butter for 2 minutes.
3. Add both of the sugars and keep mixing until the mixture is incorporated.
   
4. Add the eggs one by one, while mixing with a hand mixer.
   
5. Add orange juice + zest and, lemon juice.
   
6. Start adding the dry mixture little by little, while mixing for each portion at a time.

For The Buttermilk

1. Mix the butter with a hand mixture for around 5 minutes until butter is very creamy.
   
2. Add powdered sugar and keep mixing for 2-3 minutes.
   
3. Finally add a tbsp of milk and give it one last mix.
   

Notes

1. Start mixing the dry ingredients, and set them aside. This step will allow the dry ingredients to incorporate with one another.
2. Add the ingredients in the order mentioned in the recipe. Be patient with the mixing. Each step is important.
3. You can skip the lemon for this recipe. I like orange to dominate the taste.
4. Adding the frosting once the cake is at room temperature will ensure the cake will remain soft for the next 48 hours.
5. Do not add all the frosting, though. Only put on the cake enough cream so the cake can absorb it and remain soft. You can put it in the fridge for the rest of the frosting, and it stays fresh for 2-3 days.
6. As for the flour, I also used 00 because it makes the cake softer. You can skip this and only use all-purpose flour.
7. Never forget to spread some butter around the springform edges. I forgot, and the cake cracked a little when I opened the ring. I’ll attach a picture of this in the post.
