10 ingredients
10 steps

Ingredients

  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 2/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon-size pieces, at room temperature, plus a bit more for the pan
  • 2 tablespoons kirsch
  • 2 cups cake flour, plus a bit more for the pan
  • 8 tablespoons cake flour, plus a bit more for the pan
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh raspberry
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Directions

  1. 1
    Generously butter a 9-cup Bundt pan, and dust it with flour, shaking out the excess.
  2. 2
    In the bowl of a food processor, blend together the eggs and the sugar until smooth and thick, about 1 minute, stopping once to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  3. 3
    Add the butter and kirsch, and blend until the mixture is fluffy, about 1 minute, stopping once to scrape down the bowl.
  4. 4
    Add 2 cups plus 6 Tbs flour, baking powder, and salt, and pulse twice or so to just combine. Do not overmix.
  5. 5
    In a large bowl, toss the raspberries and blueberries with the remaining 2 Tbs flour. Using a rubber spatula, fold the batter into the berries.
  6. 6
    Transfer this finished batter to the prepared Bundt pan, spreading it evenly across the top.
  7. 7
    Place the Bundt pan on the center rack in a cold oven, and turn the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
  8. 8
    Bake until a toothpick or knife inserted in the cake's center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 25 minutes.
  9. 9
    Cool the cake in the pan for 5 minutes; then invert it onto a rack to cool completely.
  10. 10
    Serve at room temperature, with tea, ice cream, or whipped cream, as the weather dictates.
