Cast Iron Butter Cake Recipe

Baking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Butter

   In a cast iron skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

2. 2

   Mix the Batter

   In a mixing bowl, combine the brown butter and granulated sugar. Whisk until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

3. 3

   Combine Dry Ingredients

   In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

4. 4

   Add Fruits

   Gently fold in the seasonal fruits into the batter.

5. 5

   Bake the Cake

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into the same cast iron skillet used for the butter. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6. 6

   Serve

   Let the cake cool for a few minutes before serving. Cut into wedges and serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
