I wanted to make a Cake I could eat (had a sweet tooth acting up, need sweets). My Hubby ate a piece wvanilla ice-cream and said ''wow, this is a good little cake''. Then I told him it was for diabetics.....sugar-free. He said, ''really...well it sure was good anyway''. I forgot to take pix of this one....well, maybe next time. "I did it my way".....Cin(/) If you give it a try, add your pic.

How To Make cin's lemon-orange-cherry buttermilk cake.."i did it my way"

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 400 dF, with the rack in the middle of oven. Spray an 8-inch round cake pan with Bakers Joy (non-stick spray with flour).
  • 2
    Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside. Beat butter and 2/3 cup splenda on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes (mine did not get completely fluffy). Add vanilla, lemon juice, lemon zest, orange zest and egg, beat well.
  • 3
    At low speed, mix in flour mixture in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk in two batches. Mixing until just combined (do not over-beat). Fold in berries with a spoon (or spatula). Pour batter into prepared cake pan, spreading and smoothing the top. Sprinkle top with the 1 1/2 Tablespoon of cinnamon-splenda mix.
  • 4
    Bake until cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (20 to 25 minutes). Cool in the pan for 10 minutes on a wire rack; then cut into 8 slices. Serve warm with sugar-free vanilla ice-cream (that's what we did). Or completely cooled with light whipped cream.
